05Max!
Active Member
I am going to give my new (used) 05 Max the first oil change since my ownership. The previous owner used 20-50 Royal Purple. Would you keep that same weight. Seems a little heavy to me.
Also I took it out for a first ride this weekend and I'm not feeling the V Boost these bikes are known for. I have ridden a variety of bikes, but this is my first Vmax. After all the talk of the V Boost I was prepared to be amazed but it never happened. :ummm: I am taking it in soon to have the carbs checked and cleaned but is there anything else I should check? I bought this bike from a guy who let it set for a year and a half so I knew there would be some work but I got a great price, so now the fun begins. I appreciate your help in advance.
