    Marks exhaust question

    Has anyone tried fitting another can to their Mark's exhaust that didn't come from Mark? I love the sound of the exhaust but it is pretty loud for daily riding. I was thinking about having an extra set of cans to replace them back and forth depending on use. I've tried contacting Mark, but...

    Who's still riding? Winter = brrrrr

    I've been riding the Vmax during the Winter commuting to work and back, running errands, etc. The only thing that has stopped me is the snow/ice/salt. In Indiana right now it's in the teens in the morning (to work) and about 20s-30s in the evening (to home). I have decent Winter gear but...

    Black chrome + custom seat from Sean

    Not my Vmax rather the ZX12R, but the work was done through Sean. Black chrome passenger peg mounts and red recovered rear seat. The passenger peg mounts are silver when stock. I did the black chrome to have them blend better with the black frame. I had the rear seat done in red (same color of...

    Has anyone here done these classes? I'm going in March to Las Vegas NV with a friend - I've heard really good things about the classes - looking forward to it: get to ride the new S1000RR at the track

    New addition to the bike family

    The wifey's bike. Will be my part time ride as well. Ducati Monster 796. Not home yet...waiting for the dumb snow to go away. It'll keep the Vmax and ZX12R company in the garage.

    Innovate AFR Gauge. How to install?

    I saw in one of the carb threads that someone installed a AFR gauge on their Vmax. How would one do this? Do you drill and weld the bung inline with your exhaust? I'd love to have a AFR gauge on my Vmax when troubleshooting carb issues. I've tuned car carbs a lot on cars...for some reason I...

    Steering Damper

    I really like the Scotts on my ZX12R and am looking into getting something for the Vmax. Seeing how Scotts doesn't seem to be available for the Vmax what do you guys like? I have my eyes on Hyperpro...not sure where to get it from though. :ummm:

    Someone must be telling me to wear my helmet

    Ran a quick errand and since it was a short distance (1-2 miles) I didn't gear up like I usually do. Riding along something hits me in the face hard and I'm like WTF! It felt like a big rock (I didn't see it) - it hit me right under my right eye and it hurt bad and was getting worse as I was...

    Quick 97 Vmax with CF pic

    More to come...I just downloaded this off the camera. This has the Tyga CF with Sean's muscle seat (CF+silver stitching). I haven't decided whether I'm going to add the "Yamaha" to the CF scoops yet.

    Zx12r

    Just sharing...I picked this up about a month ago. I hope you guys don't mind the Kawi. :) It has dynoed verified 200+rwhp. Lots of work done to it. I appreciate both bikes...wife likes to ride the Vmax. She has a more comfortable seat. :biglaugh:

    Carb woes

    The Max is riding like crap right now. Huge surging between 2K-4K and it wants to bog off idle. I've tried working the idle mixture screws and they don't seem to help. If I lean them out a little the surging is crazy. If I richen them then the bog gets worse and it still surges. What's wierd...

    Slight backfire and hesititation

    I'm experiencing a little hesitation and backfiring. It happens with low-mid throttle. WOT appears to clear it up. Idle is perfect. The current combo is Dyna3000 (Curve 5)+Mark's 4-2 Exhaust+Sean's Jet Kit w/ 157.5 I just put in mid-octane (89/91) gas instead of regular since I have the...

    Dyna Ignition

    I'm considering getting the Dyna Ignition. Just a couple of Qs: 1) Is it worth it - have you seen gains and improvements? 2) Who should I get it from? I see UFO sells it. I like the ignition cut for redline it offers. I have a tough time seeing the tach.

    Redline fuel cut off?

    Just a quick Q...does the Vmax have an ignition fuel cut at redline? I think I bounced off the redline tonight and it felt like it cut out. If so, I'm glad. I find it hard to see the tach when going WOT. I won't be bouncing off the redline often but for the every now and then...it be good...

    20th

    My wife and I have been together almost 20th years. We just went out and got her something very special to celebrate. It was a bunch of money but she's worth it. I'm a lucky guy. In this crazy mixed up world I felt like sharing something positive. :)
