    Star Vmax forum

    I've not asked Tim, nor do I know him as well as almost everybody. But I think the idea was doomed. As I recall, and I literally read almost every posting every made roughly two years ago, Oliver was deeper into software development back when he birthed the forum. I've no idea, but I suspect...

    Mirriors

    My $15 solution herein. Why this: I didn't want to have to look down to see the mirrors, I didn't want the mirrors too far outside the bar width, and I didn't want to have the bar-end mounts in the way of my hands on-off motion. Not that accomadations can't be made, or that others are...

    How to tell what my new bike has for Mods

    Welcome to owning a Gen sir. Some helpful suggestions if you don't mind: 1) Call Tim and give him the ECU serial number. I believe he tracks that and might be abel to tell you about the sales order. It's very likely you also have the double diaphram clutch mod, as he's a big fan. 2)...

    Power Commander 5 and Mileage

    Mark: I learn something every time you post. Two maps can be stored in a PC5? Who knew? Thanks! I'm one of the 80%, but still good info. Traumahawk: With only 4 gallons on board do you think you can make a meaningful difference? Heck a 10% improvement is maybe 6 minutes more between...

    The dead horse beaten some more.....Tires.

    Just one mans opinion, but I gave up caring about tread life on a bike tire. Perhaps I can encourage you to rethink your desire too. I say that only as I decided one of the few external things I could control was the grip level of my tires. Even if I can only slow down an extra 10 MPH when...

    The OIL thread. All oil related questions here.

    I've done oil reading to death many times now, for many toys. The simple answer: I run Rotella T-6 in all my toys now.

    I too hate view of the stock mirror. Bar ends? I often hang shopping bags off the stock mirrors from small around town "honey do" trips and I don't know if Bar ends are strong enough for that. You tell me. Anybody tried it? In a perfect world I'd find mirrors that had a driver facing LED...

    Nash Flash questions

    Will the dealer do it? Mine did. It's not hard, and I did mine on my VFR, but what the heck, this way if it gets knocked over it was there fault. And yes there are a few more steps on the Flash: * You'll have to download from Tim and sign a release. Then fax it to them. * There is an...

    Does a keyless gas cap exist for gen2?

    As cheap and easy as that answer is I'm kind of floored we aren't all doing it. I mean cripes, I'm putting gas in the thing at least every other day. Kudos to you!

    Best 4-2 exhaust system

    I have the 14"oval carbon fiber Delks. I believe same think DeathPulse is using. Yep, it includes the mid-pipe. Tim will tell you to use (as I recall) the Holeshot 4:2 tune, feeling the Delk is extremely similar. Quality and fit was fine. Value / dollar is exceptional. I would (and did)...

    V&H CS-One, Delkevic, and Exhaust ??'s

    Not that I know. Sort of my point. You sir, might want to make a deal w/the guy that has the new set. I mean, for $300 or something it would be good insurance, right? Want me to connect you two?

    Star Vmax Forum down?

    Been down since yesterday. Looks like the hosting site is unhappy, not cloudflare, but I don't know. Perhaps ITGgoes, a long time forum member over there, knows more. I'm usually just reading posts.

    V&H CS-One, Delkevic, and Exhaust ??'s

    I know of a guy with a NIB V&H CS-One for sale that no longer has a VMax. I'd give him what he's asking save for the this: The mufflers are known to crack. In fact, V&H knows all about the problem has withdrawn the product, has no spare inventory, and has no suggestions. Obviously...

    Avon Owner for Life

    My tire life was just fine, but I put new front and back on just because. In back went an Avon AV72 (200-55/r18 as I recall). Monday (while it was 93 out), I picked up a nail and found myself baking by the side of the interstate. Long story short, I call Avon sales and they tell me every...

    simple oil change question on my 2015 gen 2 vmax

    Hello Ron, long time to talk. Still got it eh? I've not owned a Gen1, but an oil change on a gen 2 is so obvious once you're down there I don't really think you'll have any questions. I used K&N for a filter and Valvoline 20-50 motorcycle oil, but Rotella T-6 is another good choice. it...

    Wondering if this Lift would work on my Gen2

    I did the below, and I don't know that I'd do it again. 1000lbs my azz. Max fits, but its not all that stable. https://www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb-steel-motorcycle-lift-68892.html

    Larger fuel tank under seat

    Just an FWI, I've read about the L3K leaking, and owners fighting the problem with various sealant. I'd sure want to talk to 4-5 owners of the things first. Range drives me crazy too! If I ever hear of a decent set of hard side bags I'd dedicate one to an internal tank with some kind of...
