rough

I washed the bike 3 days ago and pressure washed it. i know thatsa no no. i didnt hold it close just blowing the wheels out and light on the motor. At the moment it starts fine and runs decent but when im throttling it has a slight miss occasionally with a pop through i think one of the carbs. i...

So... I know a handful of you guys have been working with my on the issues I've been having with my Vmax. My last update was that I got the carb sync tool on Wednesday and in 10 minutes the bike was running fantastic. This morning I went to take the bike to work and it fired right up with the...

Ok so many of you may have read my post from this morning regarding my great ride yesterday. Well, I just finished changing the engine oil and the rear end gear oil. Then I went to start the bike and it was very difficult to get started. The choke wasn't working as it normally does. The more...

Bike: 1992 PCW 1327cc chain drive with about 1000 miles on the motor So I just got my bike back from my mechanic. He took the carbs off and cleaned them, replaced the plugs and tuned and synced the carbs. The bike ran well at his shop when I picked it up, I brought it home, put all the...

I'm not sure where to start.... with the symptoms perhaps. Once the bike is at what I will call the 'normal operating temperature' or about half way on the temp gauge, I experience the following: Idle drops below 1K, not much mind you, kinda jumps from 900-950?. However if I blip the...

Ok, time to throw my dignity out the window and ask the questions.... Let me start here. I'm a PROUD new Vmax owner!! Purchased my Max about 3 weeks ago, it's an '02 Carbon Fiber.... Anyway.... Question 1: At what point does the rad fan kick in? My first day out on the bike, I was sitting in...

My Max seems to go sweet but when on 1st start up with choke it runs rough , what to do next ?:ummm:

My Max is the roughest MC I have ever rode. Tense up every time I see a tar strip coming up. Shakes my fillings out. Any way to tame this thing or is that just the nature of it?

I have read almost every post on the site and haven't found a definitive answer to this problem. My newly purchased 1997 with stock carb/exhaust/air filter runs fine when first started. As it warms up, it starts running rougher and rougher. When at full operating temp, it won't idle and runs...

I have 96 VMax with 23,000 miles and no modifications. My problem is after the bike warms up and i take off, it seems to lose a cylinder randomly. it will surge and pop out the exhaust and in to the air box. but after about 5 miles it goes away. then every once in a while it will pop in the...

Hey guys, I'm new to the V-Max scene and I think I have a problem. My bike starts and runs smoothe, but I think it is running on 3 cylenders. I changed the spark plugs to OEM and still runs the same but a little bit better. All of the plugs that came out looked ok, no white plugs or oil. The...
