    vboost gears

    Looking for this gear out of a v-boost unit. If you have one that is dead or a different gear is stripped I would be interested in the gear or whole unit to repair mine. It would be the larger gear that has a yellow to it and other pic shows it laying on its side, thanks

    Bike lunges forward in 1st and notchy in gears?

    I bought this 97 Max with 12k miles in September and having been working with this ever since. I tried bleeding the clutch and it didn't effect anything. The pull feels smooth and the release point is where it should be. I can also hold the clutch all day long and it doesn't bleed off so I'm...

    Showing my newb here. Let's talk under cut gears

    So the search function is not working on my device because I search for undercut gears and get nothing. What exactly is getting done to the gears and why? Sorry for asking but I'm vmax shopping and trying to learn all I can.

    Vmax rattling noise/ clunky gears

    Hi all, wondering if you can give me an idea as to what could be causing the rattling noise on my 98 max. I Fitted a new diaphram and slide the other day, I haven't had a Chance to balance the carbs yet. At lower revs when in gear it makes a strange noise like a rattle, almost like a bolts loose...

    My Gears of War paint job on my 97 Max

    I've been working on this paint job for the last 2 months. I have most of the tins finished, just have to do the stripping on the rear fender yet. This is my first airbrush work in 18 years. Let me know what you think, good and bad. I used the Duplicolor Paintshop system. Candy Base, Candy Red...

    segment or gears ?

    Hi all, new member here. For the record I have searched threads and haven't found my same problem, sorry if wrong. I have longed for a vmax and found one 1986, that needed work, (barely running). I went through carbs and is now running well. Test drive gave bad results. I was told that an...

    Gears are sticking?

    So my '03 Maxter Blaster has about 9000 miles on it. Here's the problem: when I'm approaching a stop and I grab the clutch, proceed to shift down but sometimes it will stay in the previouse gear. The shifter never locks up and can move in either direction. It will pop out of say 3rd to 2nd...

    Speed in gears excel sheet

    I updated the speed calculation sheet I had posted a while back. I can't find the thread so I started a new one. I added a feature to be able to display speeds in Kilometers/Hour. Also modified the tire size inputs a little. I got a new rear tire and found it was easier to measure...

    Crunching gears when shifting with high revs

    Hi, When riding my `85 Vmax hard, I sometimes hear a grinding sound when shifting (mostly to 2 and 3 i think). When just cruising, there are no problems. Finding neutral is no problems, shifting down isn't either. I also seem to have this problem when shifting from neutral while going 30mph, I...

The lights changed to green so I pullled in the clutch only to find I had no gears, the lever was just moving with no resistance. Eventually she went into...

    Question about changing rear end gears

    I was thinking if I came across the right deal on ebay I might pickup a rear ?differential? out of a venture for my max. I read that it will drop your rpms about 500 at cruising speed. The thing is my max has an extended swingarm and I was wondering will my current drive shaft fit into the...

    Making transmission gears

    I thought I would post this just for interests sake, kinda off topic as these aren't Max gears but are basically similar. They are out of a racing Triumph and I just wanted to show the procedure in making them in detail as to give some insight as to what is involved and what to be aware of if...
