I drove my 2016 vmax to my German club for a bier. No issues. It rocked. Went to get on it to go home. It took a lot of cranking and a lot of throttle to get it to stay lit. After revving for 5 minutes, it finally idled. It smoked while it warmed up smoke poured out. You could smell the...

I wonder if anyone knows of a nitrous kit available for a Gen2, or does anyone know anyone that has used it, and what issues did they run into?

Contemplating selling or trading this very clean 2009 VMX17 VMax (I trade bikes a LOT \;-). It's a bit heavier than I prefer, though I quite like the upright riding posture and the MONSTER motor (easily the most powerful I've had in 50+ years of extensive trading/riding). No known issues, always...

I just replaced the rear tire on my 2011 and now the abs light is blinking. Everything went back easily. What am I over looking? One of the rear pads did fall out and had to put it back. Is that it, and do I just need to take the bike down the road?

What are you guys using for a tail bag on the Gen 2 OEM luggage rack? Looking for something that sits on top of the rack with roughly the same dimensions to fit some water bottles, wallet, phone, etc in. Pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Connor

Has anybody had same problem on riding, like misfiring under 3000 RPM? Over 3000 RPM it runs normal. How did you fix it?

I have a question about the power commander 5. I have a reflashed ECU, and I have a PCV to go on it, but havent gotten it installed yet, or tuned. I know that the PCV can be used to fine tune the fuel for max HP, but can it also be used to get the best MPG as well? This is on a 2011. Thanks

I’m checking out a 2009 Vmax with 1500mi that’s supposedly in showroom condition and has been sitting in a temp controlled garage since 2012. Owner seems competent (lots of toys) and says they changed oil and brake fluid and bring it to operating temp every so often. I’ll be taking it for a...

Just finished installing pro taper evo bars on my 09 vmax. Could not find info on the stock bends so did some careful measuring to find them and some more measuring to see where I want the new ones. Ended up being the factory KTM bend. Left them the full width and the feel perfect so far...

A few people have asked me how to install the SpeedoHealer on a Gen 2. I have one, and got help from the Star V-Max forum site on my install. That site is down for some reason, so I created a video that I hope helps riders who want to use this device to display the correct speed on their...
