3rd

A friend of mine has been looking at an '85 Vmax which is in exceptional 'showroom' quality. He knew I had an '86, so was asking for my opinion. He has checked the bikes numbers and the serial/frame number ends with 000003. would this make the bike the 3rd Vmax ever made??

Long story short, I made a few mistakes while putting in a new clutch (with DD mod) and upgrading the shift segment. The first mistake was I forgot to push the shift rod all the way to the left before tightening the nut on the shifter. I went for a test ride, shifted to 2nd, then shifted...

Looking to possibly sell or trade it for the right stuff.

Hi my max doesn't always engage third, It will not engage and will stay in second. It doesn't do it all the time just every now and then. When it does engage it's fine and stays in gear.

We will be meeting in charlotte michigan at the meijer gas station near m-50 and I-69 at 10am. I have a route that will end in mason mi near hwy 127 if lee dont already have a route. Lee if you have a route i will be happy to give you the lead. Well you know:biglaugh:

Went to Daytona this year with Marcus an he talked me into doing the dyno shootout my bike got 3rd place pulled a 173.4 hp.:punk:

Hi, I bought an 88 Vmax a few weeks ago and I've noticed that when shifting from 3rd to 4th there is a significant amount of vibration coming from the foot shifter in the split second when I've got the clutch pulled in and my foot has the shifter raised. It doesn't always do it but it happens...

Easter Sunday, headed out 85 miles to my wife's uncles house. Kids loaded in the car, bike warmed up. I head out and shift into 3rd, clickity clack crunch grind. Rpms go up, bike slows down. Made it there and back by skipping 3rd altogether. Got home and tried to figure out what the FU?? is...

http://www.breastfriends.org/flride-for-the-girls/ I had a great time! I hooked up with an old college pal, who recently upgraded from a Monster to a Diavel. I sat on his new ride and loved how my ass melted into the cockpit (pun intended). I didn't drive it down and around, but I have to...

I read lots post about couldn't shift into 2nd gear, but I haven't see any post regarding this issue yet. what happen was I was on 2nd gear around 6k rpm, then shift into 3rd, but it pop into neutral ( neutral light is not on), and I try to shift into 3rd again, I heard gear try to engage but...

I set the date for the lake shore to Traverse city ride, if you rode with us the last 2 years you know how nice of a ride it is. If you missed it, here is your chance to join this years ride. The more Vmaxes we can get the better, but other bikes are welcome as well. Our one day round trip took...

My 2006 Vmax has started haveing some 3rd gear issues. I first noticed this when I would roll it on in 3rd gear and I would always feel like I ran over something with the rear tire . Then I noticed on a 3rd gear roll on it kicking in and out of 3rd gear like feeling like a missfire. The problem...

Well guys, I am at a loss. Last year I replaced my battery with an Odyssey. That's when the problems started. I tested and found the R/R had failed. I replaced it with a new model from Sean. He also sent a spare Stator. I replaced both and got good voltage 13.2/14.4. I replaced the stator...

Hi guys, I have a 2006 with 5200kms - I notice the bike whines a bit in 2nd and 3rd. Is this nornal? The bike shifts cleanly and no other problems. It's not too bad, sounds kinda like some sportbikes out there. I bought the bike used so I'm not sure if this is a problem. Thanks! Elliot

Last month, a friend of a friend bought a 94 with 46,000 miles. Recently it developed a issue with 3rd gear. I rode it tonight and all other gears shift and lock in great. But 3rd gear will "try" to jump out under slight excelleration although never does:ummm: Only when the RPMS are up it seems...

I have an 85 with 19K miles. In the last few rides I have gone on, it has slipped out of gear when shifting into 4th twice. First time it was cold, so I was taking it easy. The second time I was in it pretty good. It's like it goes into 4th momentarily then slips out entirely until I shift up...
