I appreciate all of your help and advice. I feel like the guy that sold it to me probably didn't know either and he's also a member of this forum so I don't want to start any issues. Now that I've got it back, washed it up and rode it around a bit, I realized that this is still an unbelievable...

Got the bike back about an hour ago. No visible stamped VIN. I will continue to look a little closer when it's not so damn hot outside

Oh boy! I'm sure if the frame has been replaced then the value of that bike probably just dropped by half. If I had been aware of this, I never would have sold it to the guy nor bought it myself. Truthfully, I doubt the guy that I got it from would have known either. I really hope that it has...

well, unfortunately, he's not my friend and supposedly, they can't find the VIN stamped anywhere. I called the local Yamaha house and they said to turn the wheel all the way to the left and it will be on the right side of the steering head. According to him, it's not there. I've never ran into...

Hey fellows, can anyone tell me if the VIN on my 01 Max is stamped into the frame somewhere. I actually sold the bike and the guy that bought it is trying to get it inspected for registration and they telling him that the sticker on the frame is not good enough. I'm sure it's probably stamped in...

I just ordered a Bike Master True Gel. Anyone tried these out yet? Premium price at $139.99 but comes with a 2 year warranty. I have a battery tender on the bike already. My bike has been cranking slow after sitting over night without the battery tender plugged in and a couple of days ago I...

Finally got to ride the bike last night on my way to work. First time I've rode it at night since I installed the HID kit. I have to say, I was skeptical but now I'm a believer. As I said before, I went with the 35 watt kit and it provides plenty of light. I still won't recommend this particular...

well, got it all wired up. Thanks Redbone for the pics and instructions. Unfortunately, when I pulled the fused power wire out of the H4 connector, I screwed up bad. I attempted several repairs on the plug, each probably more damaging than the last and finally just cut my lead off and shoved it...

That's how I have it hooked up. I must have spliced the fused power wire into the wrong wire on the relay. Now, with all you guy's help. I should be able to locate the correct terminal on the relay, make my connection and be good to go. Well I guess I will still need to stuff everything out of...

Thanks. That appears to be the same as mine. I guess my only issue now is getting the fused wired hooked up in the correct place. I guess it would hook directly to the battery for automotive application but I'm still a little unclear where to connect it on the Vmax. I feel like I'm over thinking...

That makes perfect sense! I've been trying to follow instructions that I found on this thread but stupid me, it never clicked that the instructions were for wiring a car. I'm not sure what exactly to take a picture of. It's not exactly laid out so you can see what's what. I suspect that just...

OK, I am officially too tired to be messing with this right now. I spliced the power wire into one of the red wires on the kit and everything works great except for when I shut the bike off, the headlight stayed on. I realize now that there is probably a relay for the headlight system that when...

Wow, I cannot locate where the battery power wire connects to the harness. I truly feel like an idiot for pulling it loose but I am in utter disbelief that I cannot locate the original joint on the harness. I guess I will go look one more time before I start removing the kit. I wonder though...

I got the H4 6000k 35w. I do just have the one bulb and socket but my harness has the extra leads for another light. Everything looks as though it will all plug in but will have an extra harness coming off for another head light. My biggest issue at this point is I have accidentally pulled the...

Holy crap! Where do put all this crap. I got my power lead hooked to the battery but in my efforts to tuck everything away, it looks like i pulled the power wire loose from it's solder joint. Guess I'll start pealing harnesses back til I find where it hooks up. Haven't even gotten around to...

where did you guys hook up the power and ground wires and do I need to do anything with the extra leads for the second head light? I guess the wiring harness is universal for cars and bikes with dual head lights. According to instructions, The positive lead needs to be connected directly to...

Seems like the higher the RPM, the more accurate it seems to be according to the stock Tach. I haven't had time to play with it anymore yet. My next day off is Wednesday. Hopefully can tweak it some more and get it right on. It doesn't seem to be too far off on the "1" setting and at the lower...

Shoot, I still need to figure out where #1 is at on a V4. HAHA

will do. So many post about how good it is but no bad, I don't think we were cheated. Just got to figure this thing out. I have to work tomorrow and if I don't get a chance before then, I'll be flogging this baby all the way there. I'd like to see how it works throughout the rpm range in each...

That's exactly what I was going for but at the stock setting, I already had 4 lights at 3k rpm. I really want to get the most out of it when I need/want it. At the "1" setting, the light comes on just a little before it should according to my tach. So with setting the light at 3K for the...
