Hi John, I have the same issue you describe but not quite as pronounced. Would you send me the link for the video you spoke of. Thanks, Glenn ps I have an 06 Vmax and live is Fla

I have a Kerker 4/1 as well with street baffle. When you swapped out the baffle how much louder does it make it. They hear it 6 blocks away when I start my bike now. Would that increase to 8-10 blocks? What did the comp baffle cost and how long did it take to put it in?

Thanks, I will run by the local Yamaha dealer and pick up a fuel filter and replace that. I appreciate your suggestion!

The plugs are new. I will check and make sure the boots are secure. No idea of carb settings but Boxenstopp specializes in V max repair and the bike ran great after he cleaned the carbs so I am pretty confident he did a good job on the carbs.

Bought a 06 Vmax beginning of this year. Carbs were gummed up bad. Had Joe at Boxenstopp clean and adj carbs (4/1 Kerker pipe). Have not gotten over 30 mpg in town or on road. Is this normal? 2nd issue. After riding the bike for 45 minutes it suddenly started running aweful. Felt like 50%...

I read a comparison of low to high priced helmet comparisons. Funny thing was a company named ZR1 came out best. Only cost $100. I wear that sometimes, sometimes 3/4 helment.

I have some wobble at moderate speeds (50-60 mph). How do you tighten head bearings? I know how to click on Todays posts but if I wanted to look at a post from a few days ago how do I do that? Thanks

Redbone, that looks very nice. I will check it out! Naughty G Thanks for the pics. I did check but with him but he had a lot going on and no time to do it. Been a few months so I will check the site from Redbone and also your master pipe bender and figure out something.

I bought the 06 for under $5K so I was thinking about buying an older max and selling the newer max. Might make enough close to enough off the sale to pay for the older max

I am considering buying a 1986 Vmax, 11k miles, Kerker pipe, been in storage 4 years. I have zero mechanical skill (but at least I know it). Anything I should be watchful for or best to leave it alone? Glenn:ummm:

I have an 06 Vmax and would like to mount a Givi top case. Givi does not make a mount for the Vmax. Anyone out there that has a solution? I can not go with hard side bags as I have a Kerker pipe that comes up too high. Thankx Glenn

Thanks naughty G. When I was younger I liked to try and figure out things on my own. Found as I get older the ground gets harder so I appreciate the good advice. Are you still overseas? Got a friend that is going for a ride with me on Saturday to Daytona area. Glenn

Hi, Have only had my 06 Vmax a few months. Any tips on best way to do a good burn out? Bike is stock except Kerker 4/1 and jet kit. Runs great. Not much tread on rear tire. Might as well finish it off> Also, any suggestions on replacement tires. Mine have stock rims. Thanks, Glenn

Be better if he was jumping a few cars. He is some kind of sissy. Maybe when he grows up he can get out of the parking lot and ride on the road! Glenn

Hi, I spent 18 years in medical sales but messed up my back lifting some furniture. Now on Social Security disability. My back is such a mess I am taking morphine for it. But I still ride, can't do a long ride but enjoy a 30 minute or so ride. My 2006 V Max has a full Kerker header and pipe, is...

Any suggestions on how to do a really good burnout on the VMax?

I really like the top box on your bike. Can you tell me how to contact Richwrench to obtain the mount to connect to the Give top case? Also, do you think the mount would work for a larger Givi case (can't have too much storage!)? Thanks, Glenn ps I bought a 2006 VMax a few weeks ago, just had...
