    Picked up an 03 Nostalgia So hard

    Hello All! First post! I picked up this 03 V-max to go though and re sell. It has 3800 original miles and it shows. The P/o Passed away and it was sitting a few years. I got an absolute steal on it so I couldn't pass it up. The carbs are currently sitting on my bench in the middle of a rebuild...

    FS: '03 Vmax, 19K, Excellent Condition, Nice Mods, Carbondale, IL -SOLD-

    Here's the copy-and-paste from my Craigslist ad: For sale is my '03 Vmax. It has 19,7xx miles on it as of this posting. I used to have a '98 and it was the only bike I've sold that I missed. Last Spring, my wife somehow agreed to let me purchase another Vmax, and I ended up with this beauty...

    Have front tire widened on my '03 or sell it and my Speed Triple for a 2nd gen?

    I've got an '03 with an 18x5.5" rear with a Bridgestone 180/55 sport-touring radial, and an almost-matching Bridgestone 110/80 front radial. While many will say that a 110/80 works fine on the stock 18x2.15 front wheel, the fact is that a 110/80 radial is designed for at least a 3" wheel and...

    What exactly changed in '03?

    Hi, As my first official question on this forum I would like to ask what exactly changed with the 2003 VMAX's engine. Everywhere I look it says that "the engine block was slightly redesigned". Does this mean that they simply put matte paint on the block or did they change something more...

    TCI Bad on '03?

    Well I have an '03 and it is currently running on two cylinders. I can pull the plug wires on 3&4 and the bike doesn't stumble etc. I checked (with a meter) the easy coil to get to which is the one under the seat that fires cylinder 3 and it checks good. Service manual says if that's so then...

    Talked to an 03 Venture owner...

    Was drawn to his bike out of a pack of Harleys. Walk over to the most interesting bike to me and what do you know, it is a Yamaha V4... hahaha.... Had a great chat with him. Liked his bike a lot. He said "it's a pig until 8500rpms and then it really goes." I told him I didn't have enough...

    Need help from someone with an '03 or '04

    Not exactly sure where this post should go, but this section seems right. Could someone with an '03 or '04 measure the stripes for me? I know they are tapered, and I used to have the dimensions, but I've lost them over the years. Thanks, Wayne

    03 change jets

    I was at the International Motorcycle Show in Toronto and was talking to a VMOA rep about leaning out the carbs a bit. The standard exhaust has five 3/8" holes drilled in the end face making it run a little rich. I believe he said standard jets are .150" diameter and to go up one size ( .151"...
