    I did a full fork rebuild, brakes (replaced all piston seals along with new pads), new fluids (coolant, brake, oil), and new spark plugs. I went through the carbs and synced after afterward. The tires look good BUT they’re almost 10 years old so they need to be replaced. Need to replace the gear...

    Just a follow up on this one. Bike runs GREAT! These things rip! I broke down the carbs and the pilots were clogged. Had a few bad orings and gaskets as well. Thank you @Fire-medic for your thread on rebuilding brakes. Thank you @one2dmax for hooking me up with my #2 carb as well as your fork...

    Runaway Revs?

    Not sure if this could be my issue - any chance you’ve seen this? Both sync screw and the receiver are gummed up. Anyone successfully rethreaded these?

    Runaway Revs?

    Appreciate the reply - let me re-check those cables. Are the o-rings under the v-boost housing? If they are - I saw them and failed to really inspect when replacing the vboost boots That’s exactly what my set looks like. The throttle cables have play so they’re not getting hung up. I still need...

    Runaway Revs?

    Appreciate the reply - let me re-check those cables. Are the o-rings under the v-boost housing? If they are - I saw them and failed to really inspect when replacing the vboost boots. Gauges are analog - I bought them on Amazon (I’m sure they’re not the best). I guess I should probably test them...

    Runaway Revs?

    Hey all! I’m having a heck of a time trying to tune my carbs on a used MAX I bought (15k miles). Just as I think I’m getting it synced - I blip the throttle and she runs away on me (goes up to 3k to 4k rpm’s and won’t come down). Throttle cables are fine. Float levels are perfect. Jets are not...

    I appreciate the info - I REALLY hope that isn’t the case…that would suck to say the least

    You’re scaring me with this second gear talk - what’s the deal with second gear? Had no clue about the second gear issue with these - that doesn’t sound good..

    Bike has 15k miles on it. Tires are indeed old - appear nice but old. This bike was last registered in 2021. Jardine RT-One is the exhaust. There’s fluid all over the front rotor and the reservoir is low so I suspect a leak. I put a little oil in the plug holes and dry fired it a bit to get...

    The funny thing is…these carbs are looking to cost me more than I paid for the bike 😂

    Hello! Just acquired a 2000 VMAX. Previous owner attempted to drill out the air/fuel screw in the left front #2 carb. They drilled into the carb… So I’m looking for a left front #2 body OR I’ll be buying new carbs (maybe someone wants to work out an exchange if they can use the 3 good...
