switch

Hi All, i just realized that the PO has removed the kick stand kill switch. The bike is able to be put in gear even when the side kick stand is down. I just bought a used switch from eBay and wondering where is the plug that I should plug the new switch into? Can somebody please show me a...

Ok, I haven't chased this very far yet but figured I would cheat and come to the experts. I recently noticed that when the bike is running and I use the right handlebar kill switch it takes 3-5 seconds before the engine dies. Also, with the key on and the bike not running, if you flip the kill...

Out on bike and bike stopped as in it thought it had no fuel (fuel light on).I checked and there was some fuel in the tank but could not find how to get it on reserve?Anyone got the answer,any bike iv'e had before had a fuel tap to turn to reserve but nil on my vmax.

Hey everyone, I just got a Vmax, a little bit less than 3 months ago ago, and now I am forced to sell it. 1992 Yamaha Vmax. A bit of background; Had a 2005 Dodge magnum, found out water got in the transmission, could not afford repairs so I sold it. My Max was the daily driver. about a...

So I like the vboost stock when cruising and conserving fuel. I enjoy my t-boost switch to activate it at 3000rpm instead of stock ~6000rpm sometimes also, But I REALLY like the always open option- unplugging the connector when the servo motor is at the right position so vboost is deactivated...

Yesterday I was riding on the highway and suddenly the bike shut down. I thought it was fuel, but that was okay. checked all the fuses but then I found that the run switch wasnt clicking on properly. I was able to get it to work but it is not clicking on and off. If this has happened to...

Hey guys, rookie electrical question here- I have a nice little red led light, just a single led ready for 12v. I wanted to mount it next to my t-boost switch so when it's off, and the vboost activates at the stock 6000rpm. Then when I flick the switch to the 3000rpm activation mode, the led...

When I bought my bike the guy said he broke the tboost switch that was installed. its a little rectangle switch with 3 terminals but there is only a black wire and a red wire installed leaving one empty terminal on the switch. I bought a 3 position switch from Car Qust to replace the broken...

Hi guys, I stripped some bits off the new vmax yesterday so I could fix the choke issue. While I was there I found a rather interesting box tapping into the vboost loom. I suspect it's just a diode pack, but can anyone tell me what make/etc? It's rigged to a three position switch, just want...

Hello. I've searched the forum on this topic and I just want to make sure I understand. First off, my Bike will only run with the switch to RES. I have a 1998 Max. I put a new Koso Speedo and Tach on my bike and I think this may be the problem for inputs. Follow me on this and tell me if...

Hi, I wondered if someone could help me. I have a switch on my bars which has standard boost, boost off and boost on (all of the time even from stand still) but the later has stopped working. I've traced the wires back from the switch(and tested the switch which is ok) and one of the wires goes...

I've always modified my bikes to have on/off switches for the headlight and running lights; I do run with my headlight on(hi beam) during daylight hours for conspicuity. Anyway, this is the only mod I plan for my 'Max....

I think this was a write-up before by someone here in FL-patmax? ninjaneer?-but I'm gonna post my experience. Addendum: I found the post, from ninjaneer: http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?t=20783 I have been doing a lot of work on my bike, and those of you who recognize my...

I recentyl purchased a 1990 Vmax. The previous owner installed a toggle switch which he said was the vboost 3k/off/6k switch its a 3 position switch. However, its just dangling there and I want to mount up on the handle bars and make it look nice and label the switch positions but I cant figure...

So I have my mostly stock VMAX and I've been upgrading some things along the way. Did the crimp fix and indeed I went from 16vdc charging to 17.1 vdc charging. Phenomenal! The thing has been running hot as hell whenever I get stuck in traffic or behind damn Sunday drivers. So I ordered...

So when I bought my VMax 2 years ago, it had a toggle switch installed just in front of the left scoop. The guy who I bought it from claimed that the original owner had it installed, and that it was designed to engage the VBoost at 3k instead of 58k RPM. He said that it was deactivated when he...

Anyone know where I can find a small, waterproof switch? Pushbutton style, momentary contact, SPST is what is needed. This will switch thru the different screens that my tach/speedo offers. I was looking to mount it near the left grip so its easily accessible while riding. Possibly in the...

Not a Vmax part per say, but looking for an off/on rocker type switch I can mount on the handle bars. I'd like to operate the fan over ride from my left hand, not down by the ignition switch. Anyone know who makes switches like that? Thanks.

I was riding a few days ago and my bike started to have problems . As I gave her throttle she'd stumble and sputter. It was at that point I switched over the reserve switch and she picked up for a while than she'd stumble again. :ummm: If I keep switching back to regular tank and then to...
