    Dyno'd the bike today.

    Hey Trauma, I have been trying to find a local shop to do a dyno on but no luck yet. Can you PM me your costs for this (or post if you feel like) so I can get a idea on costs for our area. Thanks!

    Wobble gone. Here comes the SHAKE!!!

    How have I not seen that video yet. My max has had the wobble since i got it and I can tell when it sets on a smooth surface the bars drop very hard so I am sure this is my issue as well. Thanks DMAN for posting and Sean for making the video!

    Dragging my side stand in corners

    Dang man, you must be really leaning it over. Is the spring holding it all the way up when upright? I used to ride sport bikes and got into the habit of knee dragging but I haven't clipped the stand on my Max yet but I ride it more like a cruiser than a sport.

    bleeding the clutch

    Hey guys, I did my clutch last night with a mityvac and I was pulling more air that fluid through the line. I eventuall got it flushed but it took quite awhile. The fluid that was in it from the PO looked like chocolate milk and I was having clutch slipping issues. After the flush the clutch...

    Handlebar clock

    I have seen the analog bar clocks on eBay and have thought about getting one of those but always wondered if some ass hat would steal it, now I know.. On a side note, I did see some with black casings and white faces on there. I'd say best to not spend to much on it in case theft happens again...

    Just Purchased, 05 VMax issues

    It seemed to run better but it almost stalled out on me taking off from sitting at a light for a couple minutes. I am going to have to remove the baffle in the exhaust since the PO jetted it. Guess the fuel built up on me while I was sitting there. Edit: Ok I pulled the baffle at lunch and...

    Just Purchased, 05 VMax issues

    Anyone have any advice on removing the exhaust? I am hoping I can just take the front 4 bolts out and then the rear mounting bolt then the system will drop down and I can leave the back headers on (because I can't get to the bolts with a wrench). On a side note: I pulled the carbs and tore them...

    Yeah, your right Danny, was right front. I really don't want to risk drilling it so hoping it's at 2.5. I have a question guys, I pulled my carbs and they are all looking pretty good but on #3 the ventury? Will not close all the way on its own. You can add a little pressure and it will close...

    AHH, I remember my first v boost, it's scared the crap out of me but loved every second of it. I compared it to a shot of nos when I was describing it to my friend. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

    Gotcha I was going through the shotgun cleaning and got to the part where I count the idle mix screw turns but I ran across this, Wtf is that? All the other carbs clearly have regular screw heads except this one. Right side front carb Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

    Here are some pics. It doesn't look like it's been re-jetted but hard to tell. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

    Thank you all for the support. I will get some better pics of the exhaust tonight. I could be the UFO but i didn't notice any stamps on it. Yes, the Vboost does work and seems to work really well at speeds. Correct, I am referring to the clamps around the rubber seals. There is...

    Just Purchased, 05 VMax issues

    Thanks all, I have wanted to pull the carbs but to be honest I am a little intimidated by it. It's just something I am going to have do make myself do to learn about the bike. On a side note, my fuel light seems to be coming on very early in mileage. Once at 84 miles then just now at 88. That...

    I got me a VMax (yay!) a couple weekends ago, it's a 05 with 16k miles on it and I can having a few issues with it and need some guidance on what to do on them. 1. It will not start when cold with the choke fully on, I have to blip the throttle to get it to start up then it idles a little...

    Hi all, new guy here.. I have wanted a VMax for a long time and recently was lucky enough to find a local one that was in pretty good shape so I decided to jump on it. It's a 05 with 16K miles on it and it "kinda" stock with the exception of drag bars, exhaust, tail light and new tires. I am...
