I have it and it looks great. However my Saddlemens tail bag sits on it terribly. What are you going to use?

Are you up an running? Bike fixed?

I am in Middleburg Heights. We should get an Ohio ride together.

I bought these Arrow, true carbon fiber motorcycle mirrors. Have not installed yet but will be my next project.

@CaptainKyle any chance you have Gen2 headlight housing ?

This is an impressive mod. I found the website for Dr Light https://doctorlight.pl/en/homepage/. Since the housing has to be shipped to them, I might do this when the Winter comes. It would be great to see one on the bike.

I am at 3000 so I would have hoped there is no issue. @pcwolfie is hopefully the extreme case. Any idea if the starter is used on other Yamaha models? If it is fairly common then no big deal. Otherwise I may just order one and put it on the shelf. Parts are going to get harder and...

Here is Partzilla https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/yamaha/motorcycle/2019/vmax-vmx17kgy/starting-motor Very curious why yours failed...... ❔☹

The list from @Zeus36 is pretty thorough. I have heard that sound before on both cars and my Gen1. It was not enough CCA. A long charge or a new battery was the solution. I have the 2019 as well and am 15 miles from you. Have you put the new starter in the bike? Happy to be the...

I would like to hear the whole story.

Josh, You can store it here. That way the Boss never needs to know. ;)

I am signed up for the California Superbike school in August. https://superbikeschool.com/ I am only doing the single day class and yes it will be the Gen2. I intend to tread gingerly.

I have a cosmetic issue. The Kaoko is installed and it has a chrome / silver finish. The other end is the OEM black. I can get the Kaoko sprayed / powder coated or something to match. That screams to me that it will look terrible, flake and so forth. The better option is probably to...

You out run him in the curves? I would have thought the R1 would be much better there and you would win the straight sections.

I was at an event in Canaan Valley West Virginia over the weekend. There were 90 motorcycles and I was the only VMAX. Lots of people stopped to look at the bike. It was an easy way to meet people.

Also reach out to @Jim Bitolas and get the highway pegs he makes.

I have the same year. It is a great machine. Did over 800 miles in the mountains last weekend. It accelerates up hill with ease.

I bought it. It looks good and works fine. I sat behind it over the weekend for 832 miles. On install, I had to clean up the threads on the hardware they sent. Make sure you have metric dies.

Cleaned the windshield. Leaving now for the mountains of West Virginia. Should have a 1000 miles done by the time I get home.

That is pretty cool.
