    What's a revalved OEM Vmax shock worth?

    I have that Wilbers shock. I did not know about Traxxion when I purchased my Wilbers Shock & now I'm second guessing myself if it was worth it. I purchased mine from EMP Wilber...

    Cutting keys with missing red key

    I believe you are in Canada, correct me if I am wrong. Perhaps the Canadian models use some sort of transponder or chip the ECM has to read in order to start the bike as a security measure. I have a 2009 U.S. model that I purchased used with only the black key that has the knob on it. I was at a...

    Handlebars

    Devl Max you are so right. I'm 64 years old and I have been modifying bikes since I was 16. I had bike in the old Autorama shows years ago. I have Harley's that I have modified high performance after market engines that then required beefing up the transmission, clutch modifications, starter...

    Handlebars

    I went a bit on the extreme side both in rise & cost. I had a local Indy shop custom make a set or risers out of billet aluminum then I had them anodized black. Of course I had that shop extend the cables and wires. The risers are 8" high and 2" pull back. I can tell you that on hard...

    Grippy tires for the Vmax 1700

    I am running Metzlers front and back. Metzlers are noted to be a soft compound tire so they grip good at the sacrifice of tire wear. With all the power our Vmaxs have care still must be exercised in wet road conditions. I am very pleased with the Metzlers.

    If you are conserned about the "hyper flash" just change the flasher relay. The one I have is the Custom-LED flasher relay. Here is the link https://www.customled.com/products/elfr-1-electronic-led-flasher-relay It is a simple plug and play. Your flasher relay is located under the right side...

    Exhaust getting louder

    I have the original X pipe & stock mufflers. The X pipe is a cat delete. I had a shop opened the stock muffler, increase the inner pipe exit diameter, weld it back up, then repack them. So my system was louder to begin with and defiantly more free flowing. That was about 8 years ago and since...

    2 Up & Setup?

    I have a Corbin passenger seat and the high back rest. That helps. Also have the Wilber shock that I must say improves the ride but is still a bit harsh. If anyone considers the Wilber shock I suggest you order the shock with a softer spring that Wilbers recommends if you want comfort. Wilber...
