^ Vmax carbs are CV (constant velocity) so if you add more air in, the carbs will pull more fuel in to try and compensate.

I still check in here every day or two and will continue to do that. I do however reply to a lot more questions on Face Book because that seems to be where most new Vmax owners check in first.

There are a few Newfie's with Vmaxe's on here. I'd get together with one of them and switch bikes for a day to see how you like a Vmax. I have owned everything from dirt bikes to cruisers (Harley's) to sport bikes and fell in love with my Vmax. Most cruisers lack power, and sport bikes are a...

Luckily there haven't been any residual fires caused by hat blaze that I know of. They just finally opened Rt. 5 again (a major artery to Downtown Buffalo) tonight.

I guy about a mile down the street from me found a big piece of melted plastic/ash from that fire in his driveway Thursday morning. I live about 6 or 7 miles from that plant.

Happy Veterans Day to all fellow veterans !!!!

That sounds Great !

Glad to hear you got everything worked out.

Read the replies to your other thread: http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?t=42935 Sean Morley and John Furbur both supply aftermarket cut down seats and they are both great guys who will treat you fairly. If you want to DIY read my reply to that thread...

^ those are all great options. Sean Morley's Muscle seat, John Furbur Sportmax seat (and Rick's no longer available MaxGasser) are well made, you can't go wrong with any of them. If one of those works for you go for it, Sean, John and Rick are all great guys and will treat you more than fair...
