    Motorcycle Wanted Looking for Gen 2

    If I wanted to go back to an inline 4 the MT would get my vote. Love the V torque though.

    Motorcycle Wanted Looking for Gen 2

    I am with you on all aspects except the rake. I like the rake, had a Warrior and Raider at the same time and the rake on the Raider really felt and handled well. I would just lay it over in turns and it would stick with Avon's. Much more hp and I would probably think differently.

    Motorcycle Wanted Looking for Gen 2

    Yes, with K&N, V&H and PCV had a lot of popping on decel. I went with Ivan's flashing my ECU and popping was gone and a lot more responsive than PCV. Pulled PCV off and just the flash, K&N and Freedom Sharp Curves now. I had worn a hole in my front heatshield and finally about 6" of the chrome...

    Motorcycle Wanted Looking for Gen 2

    Hey guys and gals, when my 2016 Max was totaled back in December I wanted to jump right back on one. Or did I, I had passed on about five for two month after the incident??? Ready to move on and have had my eye on cycletrader, craigslist and FB for sometime. If you have a Gen 2 that you are...

    Reaching Tim Nash

    The few times that I have had questions about his products I have called his shop and never had an issue discussing something with him.

    EXHAUST mid pipe / muffler mix and match

    My big deal was not so much an extra couple of hp but I really liked the looks of the stock mufflers over aftermarket single or dual pipes. About the only I was considering was DAM exhaust. I did not want my Max to look as though I had done a lot of mod's to make it look like a race bike. I kind...

    EXHAUST mid pipe / muffler mix and match

    I had my 16 decated with the Akrapovic mid pipe and put the stock mufflers back on, great sound. Also had simple MAB w/K&N, DD to clutch and Nash flash to ECU. Ran great.

    I’m backkkk

    Sounds like you got a great deal especially being the last year of the Max and with only 2600 miles. I am not into an all black bike but to me all Vmax's look awesome. Great job and enjoy your new weapon...

    Avon or Shinko?

    When I bought my 16 with 5500 miles the battleaxes had plenty of tread but they were as hard as nails and I did a lot of sliding, front and rear. I am kinda a preferred Avon guy since I run them on my 740 lb. Raider and they stick really well for a big heavy bike that I throw into turns with...

    Moore Mafia Flash!

    This will probably not be popular to some here but just going to give my 2 cents on Chris Moore. Chris is great at drag racing and getting as much as he can out Suzuki's(GSXR) most of the time. Some Kawasaki's also. I just really don't like the fact the he has jumped on the Vmax bandwagon two...

    YES, Taking it to the Nines

    You are close enough now that probably in a few more runs you will dip in the nines!!! I never put mine on the strip before I did MAB, DD, mid pipe w/stock mufflers and Nash flash but I know it came alive after those four mod's.😁

    YES, Taking it to the Nines

    I was trying to launch mine at 4k, then I tried 4500 and 4700. I am only 165 on the bike. Seemed like the sweet spot was around 4k and that's what got the 9.98 and 10.00. I am just so inconsistent working the clutch and throttle without standing it straight up:rolleyes:

    Lithium battery

    Yeah they are pricey. Think I paid $230 for battery/charger or maybe that was just battery???

    Lithium battery

    I don't think you'll be disappointed in the Shorai. I put one in my 16 and at 285 CCA it started with ease. I do recommend you buy their charger also as stated above it has two modes, store and charge. The first one I bought had a dead cell and I dealt with a gentleman named Fuch(pronounced...

    Who is sean Morley?

    Friend of mine had a GS1150E when I had my 85 Max. Use to ride all the time, his bike was quick but if I could come out of the hole even with him I had him.
