    Very clean modded 2009 Gen 2

    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...

    Fat Max 1200

    1200 Vmax. 1998 full power. This bike has been built to be a Vmax on steroids, still looks like a vmax but bigger everywhere, not the normal street fighter wanna be Vmax. It rides and handles pretty well, I'm 5'9 and it fits me just fine, it's just not practical for me and the missus to go...

    2009 VMax acceleration problem??

    My 2009 Vmax has a 500-1000 RPM "dead spot" during acceleration starting around the 3-4k RPM area. I'm not really sure what it could be. I've been searching the forum and the only thing i can find similar are problems with the older carbureted vmax models. If anybody has any idea what could...

    1994 VMax Intermittent Surging Issue

    I just purchased a 1994 VMax at the end of June. It had been in storage for 5 years. I got it running okay using the shotgun and pea shooter cleaning methods. I did notice it had a surging issue (very intermittent) about every 50 miles ridden. Dannymax recommended a thorough carb cleaning, so...

    2002 Vmax Electrically Dead

    No horn, no starter no nuthin'. All fuses are good. Battery is not so hot but will take a full charge, that's not the issue. Jiggled key and wiring, still nothing. Happened suddenly, went for a nice long ride on Monday, went to start it Tuesday and it clicked and died completely. Any ideas?
