The paint on the engine of my 86 is just terrible and I hate looking at it. I'm really wanting touch the paint up on it. I only saw one post about this and it was 6 years ago with limited information. Who all has done this? What paint did you use? How did you prep it? What kind of results...

Hi Guys, I just noticed that the engine breather hose witch should be connected to the airbox is missing... Would it do / cause any harm to ride the vmax without it?

Hey guys, I have a complete (but mostly disassembled) VMax engine. All of it is for sale. I bought it for a dune buggy build, but I ended up going with a different engine. It's not exactly pristine condition, but most of the parts could still be useful. Somewhere in its life it got some...

Hi Guys, I have a problem with one my friend's bike. He came to me complaining that his starter clutch is bad, I thought no problem...had few of them lying in my garage. After trying few combinations of starter clutches (original/heavy duty) I always get the same result, the motor...

Wasn't sure if this should be in Electrical or Carb/Tuning? Just recently, my bike has been cutting out. It starts first time and runs great with full power through all gears, but....after about a half hour riding, it just cuts out. I only have to leave it a few seconds and it starts straight...

Need some good advice. And I KNOW this is the place to get it. Very knowledgeable and helpful folks here! '89 V-Max (my 3rd one), 24K miles, all stock as far as I can tell. Had been sitting a year w/o starting, and only 250 miles in last 3 years. New battery. Drained fuel tank and carbs...

I have found that when steering 'left' on full lock, my engine will cut out. This is obviously always at a very slow speed and in 1st gear, when either turning into my driveway or making a 'U-turn'. I haven't noticed a problem on right lock. I am assuming it would indicate that it maybe...

I'm looking for a descent engine to rebuild. If it's seized or has a thrown rod that's fine. Please contact. [email protected]

I sold a Yamaha FJ 1200 to a friend a couple years ago. I installed some frame sliders just because I wanted a little more protection in case I went down. Well, this morning he rode to work and I noticed the right side was scuffed up. He dropped it. Seems the slider took the brunt of the fall...

Hi guys, few days ago my vmax '97 started to heat up more quickly and during the ride temp arrow went between 1/2 and red zone. It was around 12deg C (50F) outside and I could feel the heat from the engine. Before, it was around 1/3 position when I am on open road (even if it is 35deg C...

The good news is I already was half-way over the Brooklyn Bridge, so I didn't have to push the VMax too far, as most of the trek was downhill. Nice 80 degree day, around 50mph at 3000rpm in 3rd, fan override switch on, temp halfway up the gauge. I smell something similar to plastic burning...

2000, stock, 35k miles, So here's what happened..... bike ran fine Friday on the way to work. About 2 miles from work it sounded like I had an exhaust heat shield vibrating some where near the front of the engine. By the time I got to work it was definitely not a loose exhaust noise. It sounds...

So I have an '88 Vmax with 61.8k miles on it and about a month ago I dropped the bike going about 10 MPH on a turn (thanks sand lol) and ever since then when the bike hasn't been turned over in more than a day then when I put the key in the ON position and the killswitch to run then when it does...

How easy is it to roll it over by hand? (socket and ratchet) Took it out on the hwy to see how it was running after doing carb work/shotgun. I heard a loud noise ( metal that's broken kind of sound) about 1 mile down the hwy coming from the left front side (going 75 + mph so it had to be loud)...
