I actually have a set of those bronze covers. The original owner of my bike hated the color and swapped them out for some black ones.

I'm looking for some engine block touchup paint too. Did you ever find anything?

My 2010 has over 49k miles and still runs great (knock on wood)

I finally got mine out. I ended up taking the lf exhaust pipe off, I have the full hindle exhaust so this might be easier than the stock pipe, idk. Anyway it turns out my brush set wasn't broken or anything, the brushes were just kinda stuck in place so they weren't putting any pressure on the...

Thanks for posting. Mine has 49,000 on it and I think it needs rebuilt or replaced. I was going to take it apart and have a look inside. I managed to get the bolts out and the cable disconnected but it ain't comin' out of there without removing something. It looks like it'll come out if I take...

Thanks. I had everything apart for so long I thought maybe I lost something.

Hi guys, I've had my bike apart for a while and I just got it back together today. I noticed this gap below the ignition switch that looks odd like there's something missing. I don't remember seeing this gap before. It's been so long since I took it apart I can't remember if anything went there...

Update: No problems after a long day of riding on some pretty rough roads at times. Apparently driving the seal down a little too deep wasn't an issue.

I actually bought an extra seal just in case I screwed one up. Even after beating the crap out of it the first one wouldn't go down far enough to get the ring in so I knocked it back out and started over with another new seal after flipping the washer over thinking maybe that was the cause as...

Thanks for the replies everyone. I got 'em done and back on the bike last night, now I just gotta get motivated and get the rest of the bike back together today. The bottom allen size was 8mm or 5/16" if anyone interested stumbles onto this thread later. I tried to zip them out with my little...

Is there any way to hold the damper rod so the bottom bolt can be removed/ installed without buying the special tool?

Hi all, I need to do fork seals on my 2010. I've searched all over and I keep finding videos and info on 1st gens but nothing on 2nd gens. I did manage to find the service manual so it looks like I could do the job but it doesn't tell me what tools are needed other than some Yamaha specific...

I bought a 2010 last week with nearly 49k miles. I don't know much about the maintenance history but it seems to have been well cared for. Runs and rides great so far.

Are you in the US or across pond? Seems like all the good stuff for Vmax's is in other countries for some reason.

I'm sure it's long gone by now but I want to put a 240 on mine. Did you sell it? If so, what did you end up getting for it?

Hi all, I've wanted a 2nd gen VMAX since before I ever rode a motorcycle. I got my first bike - a 2007 Harley Night Train about a year ago and I'm pretty comfortable and confident on it now so I've been watching for the right deal to come along on a 2nd gen VMAX that's not a million miles away...
