    2004 Low Mileage VMax

    We had a nice weekend so I decided to go for a ride. When I got to the end of my street I remembered one more thing I added. Sean sent me a 3 piston front brake upgrade. I bought the VMax after I suffered a dirt bike injury and wasn't able to ride dirt bikes for a while. I picked this bike...

    2004 Low Mileage VMax

    SOLD, SOLD SOLD I am already having sellers remorse but it's gone and it isn't coming back. It was such a nice bike I was really hoping one of you guys would pick it up so I would know that it would get the appreciation it deserved. 2004 VMax with just under 4500 actual miles. I bought...

    First hiccup

    Well I may have dodged a bullet. I drained the tank put some fresh non ethanol premium and Sea Foam treatment in it. I had to run pretty much the entire tank through it before it just as suddenly as it started acting up it suddenly quit backfiring and idles perfectly. I'm so excited to have...

    First hiccup

    Thanks for the link sdt354. Sounds a like lots of opportunities to screw something up but could be the fix I am looking for.

    First hiccup

    It can't have too much fuel left. I think I am about 25 miles away from reserve. I rode it about 15 miles yesterday trying to get it to clean up. It actually ran good on acceleration and cruise it just has a backfire when you let off the throttle and it will not idle unless I give it a little...

    First hiccup

    I have had my 2004 for 2 years now. It's a low mileage bike and has run flawlessly until now. I rode it yesterday for the first time in about two weeks and it backfired on deceleration and will not idle at all it just dies. I always run no ethanol premium and try not to let it sit for more...

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    I wanted more power out of my front brakes so I contacted Sean at Morley's Muscle and he sent me these 6 piston calipers which are much stronger than the original 4 piston ones

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    The previous owner sent me the windscreen he had removed from the bike. I bolted it on to see if I liked it. Still undecided. He had removed the OEM turn signals and put some small LED ones on it. The front ones wrap around the fork. There were pretty noticeable but the tiny ones he put on each...

    OEM header gaskgets -SOLD-

    Re: OEM header gaskgets I was really hoping someone could use these. I hate to have things sitting around going to waste. I easily have $30 invested in them. It will cost me 6-7 dollars to ship them so I will be taking a loss.

    OEM header gaskgets -SOLD-

    I bought these new in the original Yamaha packaging but took them out of the packaging thinking I would need them when I put on my new exhaust but since my bike is low mileage I didn't need them. $30 including shipping to the lower 48 United States.

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Not too bad but I pulled the front wheel and brought it in the house. I have an understanding wife! It probably needs to be 70-90 degrees to lay down good. I'm still a little nervous about removing the rear wheel. Never had a bike with a drive shaft. May wait until Spring and try to do the rear...
