    Throttle cable block

    Did you check the cable adjustment? The junction also seems to like the orientation of the splices with the slots facing outward. If we're talking about gen 1's that is.

    Flakes in oil

    You can run the oil for a bit and then send it to blackstone labs for a analysis. They will let you know where the most likely part(s) is that the debris is coming from.

    No vmax choppers?

    That is Pierre Desjardines bike. We helped him with many parts on both of his builds as I am sure others have done too. Both of the Vmax's in his garage are very nice.

    No vmax choppers?

    Thanks for the info Cannon. If you have any build pics I would love them for my photo albums. My email is [email protected]

    Faux Tank Cover

    1985-2007 will interchange. Only colors changed through the years (2003/2004 had the factory stripe package)

    Bad sounding engine. Big end gone?

    What exhaust is on the bike? The stock front pipes are double walled and have been known to break the inner pipe loose from the outer which can make a pretty bad racket.

    Supercharger kit?

    I am not sure what will and won't swap but from what I can see zero between the Mad Max setup will interchange with the Magnacharger setup.

    Back seat rack

    Not sure but off the top of my head/guesstimate would be 12"x14"?
  9. one2dmax

    Float set, 28.5mm suggested so what would 30 mm act like?

    Each 1mm you are off takes an approx jet size change to compensate.

    Supercharger kit?

    The hardest part is getting the cast intake. Or you have to fabricate your own. Plus get all the other parts custom machined out. Not an easy task

    1st Gen V-Max My bike

    Usually best to email me at [email protected] You may need to adjust the a/f mix screws to get the off idle hesitation. if it's while cruising then adjust the needles. An example of the brake kit:

    Yamaha Letter of Certification

    Many years ago a friend did that for his 85. I think the 90's was cleared to do that without any issues but not sure what the specifics are to do it.

    Towing with a dolly

    As was mentioned there is a direct oiling injection to the rear output bearing system. Others have towed without running the bike but I would not do it personally. And, even with it running you run the risk or starving the engine for oil depending on the angle it's at since the oil will go back...

    Blown oil pick up oring symptoms

    I think you can get the transfer tubing removed enough to get the oring swapped out. But, it's only 3 bolts to get the pump off the block so you can clean out the screen and have it ready to go back in.

    1985 VMAx

    Highly unlikely to be a head gasket blown though it could be. I would check the oil to make sure on contamination, check the plugs to see if they are being steam cleaned, and then if not I would let it run for at least 30 minutes so it can get nice and warmed up. Watch the temp on the gauge and...

    Motorycle For Sale 1985 not running asking $1500

    Looks like it's got my busa brake kit on it. Needs a seat mod.

    Supercharger kit?

    I've still got the complete bike (less header). Just haven't taken the time to disassemble it yet (other house projects to do anyway)

    1st Gen V-Max My bike

    Nice looking 89. Looks like it has one of my seats on it. Might even have one of our jet kits on it (look to see if it has a large flat filter when you take the faux lid off). It just needs our busa brake upgrade!

    Blown oil pick up oring symptoms

    It's a direct drive oil pump. I can't imagine what you may have going on other then the oring which you've already verified as good. And as long as the teeth on all the various drive gears are good.

    Oil Pressure Gauge

    Small screws is common. You could use a custom bracket to that clamps around it. Or, even a bracket to clamp to the handlebar. Pictured was what we used with our GPS Speedo setup we offer. And then a bracket someone else used.
