Max is running extremely rich when idling but leans out around normal running/riding RPM 3000 - 7000 RPM. Any suggested fixes? Thanks, Darren

I tried a little experiment about a year ago and didn’t want to post anything until I could get Dyno #s to go along with the idea. I have Dale Walker Holeshot exhaust. I originally took off the slip on mufflers and replaced them with Hedman Hot Tips 17120 exhaust tips. (about $25 each)...

I have a stage 7. I've always synced the carbs with vboost off. Can you sync them with vboost on?:ummm: Thanks my VMAX brothers.

I'm waiting on Sean to respond but does anyone else have valve shims I can Buy and have overnited? Need: 2x 2.80 3x 2.75 1x 2.70 Thanks!!!

My Motionpro carb sync tool is low on the "magic blue fluid". Is there some other fluid that can be used or do you have to use their special formula. I don't mind ordering it....just a little curious. Thanks

Ok...did a long search thru the million threads on brake/clutches without finding the answer I was looking for. I bought a Nissin Clutch master with the switch. The switch has 3 small hookups(made orig for a connector). Can this somehow be wired to the VMAX clutch wires? If not, is a banjo...

Wondering if anyone has bought a brake or clutch setup from Xincity.ca off of ebay. This setup looks pretty nice but possibly to good to be true. Here's the link and a pic. http://www.ebay.com/itm/220943869985?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_6147wt_980 Was hoping to get...

I know they are new, but has anyone mounted these new Michelin Commander II tires. They look like the best competition for Metzeler 880s. I like how hard the Metzelers are but they just don't get great traction (back tire). I can roast them in third. The michelins look good too and have the 170...

New to Texas and living in San Antonio. Looking for fellow VMAXers to plan some rides with. Let me know where you live and lets get some rides planned. :biglaugh: Darren

Like many people, I own a VMAX because it looks different from any other bike out there and it looks like the muscle car of bikes. So here's my opinion; when you swap the rear rim for a larger diameter one and add a low profile tire I think it destroys the meaty fat tire muscle car look...

Getting stationed at Ft. Sam Houston this winter and was wondering if there are any San Antonio or Texas VMAX groups/riders? Would love to organize some VMAX rides soon after arriving. Thanks, Darren

Had to take the intake manifold off to replace the rubber boots that connect them. As some of you may know there is two different bolt sizes that attach the manifolds to the engine. Well, pretty sure the guy that owned the bike before me botched the bolt placement. (only had one short bolt out...

Would like to link up some VMAXs on Sept 30th for a ride and party at Vegas Bike Fest 2011. I will be staying 2 nights, returning to SoCal on Sunday Oct 2nd. Plan to link up at Peggy Sue's Dinner (Just North of Barstow). Any other VMAX riders from other states planning on going to Vegas...

Figured I go ahead and get this one started....I think everyone had a great time on the May 1st ride, I know I did. Looking at July 23 or 24, 30 or 31. Please drop a line and let me know what works the best for you guys...

Got my carb sync tool in a couple days ago and went out tonight to sync the carbs. Got a carb sync tool with 4 gauges. Hooked everything up and after warmup and at 1000 rpm idle the gauges are reading at about 7 psi at idle. All gauges are reading this low. Normal is supposed to be at 22 psi (I...

Ok......I need to replace my clutch master cylinder and am wondering what are the best replacement/upgrade master cylinders for my MAX. I need to be able to reuse the lines I have so they need to be "plug and play". Any suggestions....PLEASE HELP. Also I'm sick and tired of the sloppy clutch...

Hate your grey differential dust covers....here's a great way to change them to the color you want. Before you start this project order a new differential o-ring you will probably need to replace it before you put the gear back in. Get the plastic dust covers off (do both). Mask off the...

I'm in the Army and been stationed at Fort Irwin, Cali for over a year now. Would like to organize a "VMAX only" day ride sometime this spring. Would be great to get 20 or more VMAXs together for a ride thru sunny Cali. I've done a lot of riding around the Big Bear/Crestline area this last...
