Whats going on y'all. My VMax has been acting a little strange. It rides fine, but suddenly when I get around 6 or 7k RPM, the engine freely revs to redline without any power going to the wheel. When I roll off the throttle within that rev range, it FEELS like the bike wants to accelerate, and...

Hello, I'm new here and just recently bought this 85 vmax hoping to bring it back to life. After pricing out the parts I think I would need I have decided to part it out. It is pretty much a complete bike minus a few parts were already missing. I've attached some pictures and also have more, but...

My rear part of engine is making sound since I changed oil. Can any one help identify what could be wrong. Is the an adjustable tappet in vmax?

Hello friends!! Guys, i need to know how i can get valve clearance kit to work on my vmax because i think my engine has some valve without the correct clearance. The biggest problems is that im in Brazil and this is my "Big Yellow" 94 vmax! Thank you for your help!!!

2 sets of engine guards for 85 to 07 vmax these are not perfect they had scrapes before being powder coated. I usually sell these for 125 a set but these are what I would call second's. They look fine when mounted and you will probably never see the previous damage once mounted. They are fresh...

Hello, Last year I'd install Ignitech TCIP4 v88 module on my Vmax. I'm wondering how high rpm is safe for my engine. Now rpm limit is 10200 rmp. What do you think about it?

oes anyone know the purpose of a curlt wire underneath the engine. Painting my engine,engine up in the air so I can get under it and saw the wire. I think it is a ground of some sort. Anyone know what the heck it is for?

All, I have my engine prepped and am about to remove it from my 85' for transmission problems and am trying to figure out the easiest way to work on it. Is there a good stand out there for mounting the engine that you guys have used? Right now I'm going to work it on the floor until I split...

Bought a vmax engine today, or atleast I thought lol. Casting on the front says it's the 1198 (vmax) and the seal number in the rear starts with 1FK which was the 85 vmax only... but I popped the clutch cover and found this??? It looks like a venture clutch basket? What on earth do I do with...

I'm looking for a starter clutch cover (I believe that's what it is, the big cover on the left side) and a clutch cover for the right side. Would be nice if they were off of an 85 or 6 (I'd like the have the aluminum colored inserts) Thanks
