98

I just got a 98 vmax in a trade Sunday with a unknown engine noise. I was told the bike lost some power when the owner heard the noise and immediately cut it off and trailered it home. When I got it running, all I could hear was a very faint noise coming from the valve train. I took it down the...

any feedback much appreciate The caliper off 98 r 1 blue dot

Hello everyone! I want to first thank everyone on this forum that have the generous, helpful attitude we all rely upon in the darnest of times. I have been rummaging through these forums for a few weeks and recently picked up a VMAX myself. Over the years, I've had twelve cycles. Anything from...

My daughters boyfriend has been looking for a used bike at a decent price. He found a 98 vmax in stock condition with only 4,500 miles on the clock at a local stealership that is selling it on consignment for another customer. Bike blue books in at like 3200, not taking into consideration the...

Howdy men I looked at a 98 blacked out vmax and noticed the oil pan was plain aluminum. Did this come from the factory this way or could the pan be new or a replacement for whatever reason? thanx

Do the the newer vmax's have 17s fitted or no, or if yes, will they fit or if no what others (if any) would fit

As the title suggests, i am looking to swap my 92 forks over for a 98 vmax set up. A friend of mine is about to put a R1 set up on his max. Is this a direct swap? Anything i need to know? I see a lot of talk about progressive springs. The fork seals are on their way out so was going to get the...

will the carbs from a 98 vmax fit and work on my 92 vmax without any modifications ? :ummm:

Does any one know why the part#'s are different from 1997 Rect & Reg Assy (3JP-81960-00-00) , then in 98 they came out with 3JP-81960-01-00 Did they fix something here, the part # stays the same from 98 to present. The reason I ask is I know about the FH001 MOS-fet R/R. and if they fixed...

I am still learning the Vmax so please be easy, I purchased this 98 and the owner told me that the bike has a stage 7 jet kit. The bike has slip-ons and I am currently dealing with Sean Morley to get myself a full exhaust system to pull as much HP as possible. My question for this thread is...

Ok fellas, I purchased the 98 on Friday, it is in great condition, I was pleased all weekend with it. My first question is about the tunning of course. When the bike gets to about 5500 rpm it starts to burp and looses power and then gets itself backtogether for the V-boost, sometimes in second...

Im selling my 98 vmax, it is in great condition for its age. The bike comes with engine guards and the small windsheild. Its fast fun and the carbs were just gone through. Tires are on their way out. Email me for pics. Thanks Kevin

My vmax seems to be staving for fuel after 5k more so in higher gears then 1-2. I dont know if the v-boost just isnt opening or what but it does seem like it randomly will come alive for a second if i keep the hammer down but its acting like a dirty fuel filter. what can i check? Plugs...
