Hello Everybody, New V Max owner here. I just purchased my 06 a few weeks ago & really love the bike. Just can't seem to get off of it. The day I picked up my bike, I had the pleasure of meeting Jay Gleason. He was at the shop when I was doing the paperwork. Great man with many suggestions that were helpful. He also gave me an email address for his PR person who has put together a DVD of many of his tests that he did when he was testing the V Max. Cool DVD!!
I have read allot of posts here on the forum & found allot of useful & helpful information. Thanks everybody for sharing.
I do want to ask everybody what you are doing for a seat replacement? I looked at the Corbin seats, but I am not sure if I like the access into the fuel tank. Plus appears to me that with the Corbin, you loose the storage under the second seat area, along with a small fuel opening. Any input on this? How comfortable is the Corbin? Is it worth the money?
I also was looking at the UFO Starfighter seats. I do seem to like this better, except for the fact of having to give up stock seat. How is the material quality of these seats? Comfort?
Anybody have a stock seat for sale?
Next let's talk about grips. What has everybody been changing there's with?
I like the idea of a gel grip to lessen vibration & fatigue. I was thinking of these grips... http://www.kuryakyn.com/products.asp?bn=metric&ci=2925
Anybody using these? Ideas welcomed.
Thanks Kevin
