Hi everyone, I have a 98 vmax and it's my first ever vmax. I seem to have a problem and I am hoping someone may have a solution: my bike idles just under 1000 rpm and sounds nice. Problem is I have to give it a little gas in order to start it (unless it's warmed up). Also when the bike is idling if I give it gas it sputters, this also happens when I take off. I have to give it a little more throttle at take off, because of it's hesitation. I rode my friends 85 vmax and it was like night and day, his was FAR more responsive,mine feels much slower.
Interventions I have made are as follows: checked all spark plugs and wires, checked fuel filter and airfilter, made sure the exhaust system was tight, I did the "pea shooter carb cleaning". Next I am going to sync the carbs. Any recommendations? Ideas? Thank you.
