    overheating

    I brought mine down to the screw on the dial when hot by using Engine Ice coolant. After a good flush too.

    Hi

    My two cents, all great advice because that's what you get here on the forum and the very best part is it comes freely. Did the clutch master and slave on my 2000 and followed fire medic's instructions. Wow, a different bike. I thought the clutch plates were bad, no way, she wants to break that...

    Clutch Issue, please help

    Thanks Fire-medic for lessening the shame of it all. When Sean asked about the side stand, it clicked. So happy to be able to ride again. Thanks to Sean, Fire-medic and all the forum members who really help with their knowledge even if its common sense.

    Clutch Issue, please help

    Thanks so much for understanding people and motorcycles. I have been wondering what I could have done wrong by just part changing. I did get into a hurry and sat on the seat to see if it worked but forgot the simplest thing. I owe you big time Sean. Thanks for the kickstand reminder.

    Clutch Issue, please help

    Thanks Sean, I did nothing to the plates/disks. But thanks to you, I'm now not sure the kickstand was up. Will try again with it up. Will keep you posted, even if it makes me look foolish. Thanks again

    Clutch Issue, please help

    Clutch stopped working on my 2000 Carbon with 13k miles, installed new servo and master, bled system. Clutch now feels great. But when I put it in gear it stalls. It did sit for three weeks while waiting on parts. Any ideas ? Bike ran well before clutch went bad, no slippage at all. Any help...

    Cooling/overheating

    Parminio is right on with the nature of the vmax. I'm fairly new and did not know this realization so I installed Engine Ice and it barely goes past the screw on the dial. Hope I didn't screw up, lol.

    Parts Wanted Looking for COPs setup

    Here is a pic of what you are receiving. They had instructions as follows: 1985-2007 Yamaha Vmax Cops. 4 Cops and 4 Wires all are new. These will plug into the existing clips that are already on your stock coils. They will certainly add reliability too. Quicker starts and cures hot starts. You...

    Throttle hesitation

    I have the same issue with my 2000 carbon. I have to rev it up on take-off or you might fall flat. Thanks Fire - Medic for the great troubleshooting checks, will check all. Right now, I'm having to bleed my clutch often. Purchased new $100 slave hoping to fix the clutch and wet kickstand. Good...

    1st Gen V-Max Idle rough when hot

    I have the same issue with my 2000 Carbon, found out there was a significant drop in voltage when the fan started. Changed regulator and voltage came up but I still have the issue. Now have the idle up to 1250 to keep the stall at bay. Thanks to caseyjones955 I will check the leads and caps as...

    Cobra Pipes and jetting.

    My 2000 Carbon had Cobra's on it when I purchased it and they sound / look really good. It was a big undertaking to go back to stock, more than I realized, the parts needed ie, muffler stay with its grommets, sleeve nut, bolt and washer were extremely hard to find. But I got a great deal on a...

    Cobra Pipes and jetting.

    Ditched my Cobra's and returned to stock muffler. No more backfiring and a totally different motorcycle. V-boost came alive, almost like it had been hibernating with the Cobra's. Rear tire breaks lose so easily. I love that the vmax is so quiet now but, twist the throttle a little and it comes...
