I found this on ebay today and thought that i would post - if you need to fix your 2nd gear splipping issue...

Is the "Crimp" fix still necessary on the '06 model year? Vmax Outlaw says "Older bikes seem to benefit more from this modification." I'm not very mechanically inclined, so if yamaha has improved this connection or there isn't much benifit from it, I might avoid it altogether. However, If some...

Well, I've had the bike like 4 weeks. V-Boost worked long enough for me to feel it a couple of times. Now I noticed today that it's not working. I do not have any servo sound when I turn on the key. I have checked and have cleaned all of the wiring contacts. I have even checked the V-Boost...

A guy on the European vmaxchat.com forums posted this and I thought it was interesting. Thoughts? Mark #1098 Found this on net about virago, ventura and vmax, The notorious second gear problem in the transmission is something Yamaha did wrong. There's a spacer in the wrong place. This...

This is how I did mine. The bike's an '85 and I did the crimp fix a few years ago. Finally, i got smart, and put in the new type R/R unit. (there is a thread I started about this). Unit comes with red and black wires to fit the newer wiring on the '96 and above models. Simply extend the...

Is there a fix a flat type of product specific for bikes?

If you are like me the stock mirrors shows more of my shoulders than what is behind me, My solution is bending the mirror stems, 1-It is easy just disassemble the mirror , 2-Remove the mirror so you have the stem in your hands 3-Now get two pluming pipes 1.5 inch internal diameter will...

I did the fix a while back and liked the result but actually what happened is that as the bearing racers set on a new bike re torquing the steering should be done ~ 6 month and every 6 months after that,this eliminates the wobble caused by loose steering head no matter if you did the fix or not...
