    Hesitation at low rvpm...where to look?

    I am having a similar problem, maybe a bit worse even. Below 2000U/Min my Max shoots and has less than zero power. Carb has been properly cleaned (sodablasted, ultrasound plus mechanically). Since my Max runs too rich on low rpm, we suspect the rubbers (#43 and #45 on the spare parts drawing) to...

    Changed battery

    We have a large battery factory here nearby, in Europe famous quality brand "Banner". One of their engineers is a close friend of mine and told me the main problem of battery life in a VMax is that the battery is very close to the rear exhaust manifold. The larger the distance the less heat the...

    Effects of wheel and suspension mods

    I cant tell you a lot about the USD fork, since I am using the OEM fork with progressive springs. That serves me well. What I can tell you is that the differences to swap out the OEM rims and tyres into 17" is a massive improvement. Especially when you live and ride in a mountain/hill area with...

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    @gentsvmax It was in my youth when I have done a holiday job similar to wrapping, so some 40 yrs back. Since I cant really ruin anything I thought on giving it a try, got the film for free to play with. I like the matt and gloss since its elegant to me, just like to use different white's...

    O ring size on inlets

    @Fire-medic I have a (more or less) complete list of all O-Rings with their sizes - if you could need it. Warning: its from our German group, so the wording is in German.

    My Bike

    The periferal is a bit less, so the speedo wont show the right figures and to the same extend the acceleration is better. If you ride an OEM VMax and right after a bike with 17" wheels (what I did) you can feel it. But this difference is not the point. Riding mountain roads makes a huge...

    My Bike

    Oh yes, @Fire-medic and Sean are angels and V-Max wikipedia in person, they also supported me a lot. Well, if you are happy with handling, leave it - or improve it gradually, just like @Fire-medic suggested. In my opinion the biggest jump improving (and the $$$$ side of it) was to swap the...

    My Bike

    I swapped out the rims front and rear into 17" and have chosen Pirelli Angel. @OGMAX is not wrong, it handles OK (which depents what you understand as OK). Here in my area its more or less useless with the OEM rims/tires you can ride the Max, but it doesnt make fun. Real fun riding a VMax comes...

    My Bike

    All fine. First things that I "upgraded" was to change rims and tires - but I am living in a mountain area.

    My Bike

    Nice looking bike! It reminds me a bit on my Max when I picked it up - except the exhaust. Did you ride it, can you manage the tires?

    Installing VBoost on a European model

    Hi sixcarbs, Serbia? Beautiful, just have been in Nis for some days (job related). Well, just ask the seller and the type. Let him send you a pic of the carb from the side. But the chances the first seller has imported the bike from US or Canada is very very high. Other idea: if you are not...

    Installing VBoost on a European model

    Hi sixcarbs, where in Europe are you located? Here in Germany and Austria its meanwhile hard to find VMaxes without VBoost, since the few ones with (that time) legal registration are more or less out of the market. Look out for a 2LT model and when you go and check the bike you will find a...
