    Continued tuning required!

    It is locked fully open but yes I did close them when I balanced them.

    Vboost is disabled, I dont believe I have access to enough space to do the plug chop.

    Continued tuning required!

    Thank you I will verify the sensor and indicator. I should have mentioned in the first post that it has the Dyno-jet stage 7 and a 4-1 ufo exhaust. I did verify while apart that all of the jets and needle clip positions were correct as far as dyno-jets instructions. I just had the carbs off...

    Continued tuning required!

    Didn’t get any more replies on my other post, not sure if there’s a way to bump that one up or not. I got my carbs all balanced nice and evenly, very impressed with the smoothness and response. One area I am not satisfied in is when cruising with the throttle just cracked open. There’s a popping...

    Carb balancing starting point.

    I couldn’t wait on the weather, it’s almost 60 degrees today so I went ahead and synchronized the carbs. MY GOD is this thing smoother than I ever imagined it would be. Could NOT be happier! Only thing I noticed, is when at steady rpm and steady engine load, I.e. cruising, I can hear an...

    Thanks for the help guys! Just waiting for it to warm up outside then I’ll get the sync done!

    Carb balancing starting point.

    Interesting! That was very well explained thank you! I will get that valve closed for balancing! Dannymax, believe you me, I searched high and low, inside the carbs and out for those washers, thinking maybe I missed them or I somehow dropped them all on disassembly. But all of the o-rings were...

    Carb balancing starting point.

    It is unplugged but the valve is physically tied to full open with a custom made looking bracket. When I had it apart I verified it was all the way open. So I'll likely do the balance/sync with it in that position.

    Carb balancing starting point.

    V-boost valves are present but locked in full open position. I know how to adjust idle mixture when referring to 1 carb feeding 1 cylinder but not 2 carbs feeding two cylinders together. Adjusting them after doing the sync makes sense to me, however!

    Carb balancing starting point.

    Hello! So, in getting my Vmax running and riding, I cleaned and rebuilt the carbs, replaced all 4 mixture screw assemblies as all of the washers were missing for some reason, and replaced all the rubber boots. The bike has the dyno-jet stage 7 kit and a UFO 4-1 exhaust, I see on Dyno-jets...

    Expanded my Yamaha collection!

    Hello all! Last year I bought a 2000 Vmax from my father in law that was in need of some love. After cleaning/rebuilding the carbs and replacing all the intake boots, its up and running and pretty cool to compare alongside my 98 R1 as far as power band, etc. The Vmax has a stage 7 jet kit, 4-1...
