With the wealth of knowledge I have gained from this forumI am going to take off the cobra mufflers that came on the bike when I bought it. Removing the stock caps and drilling them out. Any hmjetting recommendations?
Going back to stock from cobras.

Stock US main jets are usually 152.5 but I'd try 147.5 Mikuni jets. Be aware Dynojet #'s are not the same orifice size or # as Mikuni's #'s!

Thanks, I hope someone in your area can serve as an occasional riding buddy, or as a resource for fixing things, as the siamese twins said, "two heads are better-than one!"
Once you replace those non-performer Cobras, you are going to be amazed.

I am new to vmax's but not to motorcycle performance. The dynojet thing goobers alot of folks up! LOL. I sold my GS 1100 based 1570 car tire bar bike to buy my VMax. I appreciate the help with my dream bike, I have wanted one since I was a freshman in high school and I got one now.
Your modded GS1100, was it an E or an ES? That was probably quicker/faster than a VMax, by quite a bit.

My gs
was a car tire bar bike 1570 MTC big bore with Lectrons and it had run 8.50's in the 1/4. Yes it was much faster in a straight line..LOL. Having ridden a very nice stock form the GS, it was not as fast as my Max.

My buddies at the shop I spend time at, love the air-cooled GS'es. They use turbos and/or NOS in their builds. Of course the 'busas get the attention now, but they still build the 4-V GS Suzukis, like you said, with big-bores and they also run Lectrons. They have what the shop owner calls a 'learner-bike:' a 1500cc GS 1100, running 15:1, a 100 wet-shot NOS, w/a 7" slick, 3 speed auto trans, slider MTC clutch, Schnitz Pro Series II electronics, w/a DYNA Pro ignition box run with the Schnitz electronics, on a 69" wheelbase, wheelie bars, a carbon-fiber body, a CBR600 front end w/a steering damper.
Besides Blazing Saddles, Alex Karras was great in Victor, Victoria with Julie Andrews and James Garner.

All I remember from that one is Julie Andrews' bare breasts. Quite a shocking departure from SOM and MP.
(And how many other actors have knocked down a horse with a punch and made it believable?)
EDIT: Looks like my memory is faulty. Luckily I checked. It wasn't Victor, Victoria. It was S.O.B.

Not-sure what movie this is?
OK, I found it: S.O.B. (1981) - IMDb
Watch S.O.B. | Prime Video (amazon.com)
