Prolly just me getting older, but I after a few hours in a Gen 2 seat I'm getting a bit saddle sore. What are folks doing to get some improved comfort on these things? Thanks!

Late, but I'll chime in. I ran the Avon Cobra on the rear and liked it a lot. I just wore it out. It's a 3% increase in circumference vs stock, and that brought the speedometer up from stupidly inaccurate to just sadly wrong. It also gave me a bit taller gearing. Not much, and I could feel...

Just some notes for the next guy: I went with the 12clock labs version. It's the universal model number U1 and is $79.99 as of this writing. It's DIY wired into the harness just before the ECU. 1) Here is a video that shows what wire to cut. Cut with reasonable space to solder on each...

Thanks guys!

Anybody know which version works with a gen2? thanks!

Huh. I don't drag race the thing, not overly abusive, but look - there are no shrinking violet Vmax owners. Guru tuned and etc, it's run 15W-40 T6 in it for years. It's MA and MA2, and I have no problems at all. Except Sean just voted against it. I don't know the man, but I know he knows...

Welcome. Don't know what year you bought, but I just made several suggestions for a new member for the gen 2.

Welcome! Let me say these things: #1 Put new tires on it. Read the forum for suggestions. #2 Put the ExactRep peg lowering kit on it. Wow. #3 Put some mirror extensions on it. Cheap, big help, not wider (as bar ends would be), and you can still hang grocery and etc bags from the...

Ya, I emailed Wayne linking to this thread and offering to be a bridge for him to the several failed installs here if he would be interested and cared to provide me a wiring diagram, instructions, and a parts list. A relatively defensive response. Not exactly unprofessional, but clearly not...

Wow, so many of us watching this thread that would buy. I don't quite why anybody with the design and programming would walk away from so much opportunity. Turbo, was it just missing parts?

So, yea... I purchased these and Jim's highway pegs at the same time. The highway pegs are flawless. Done. The Exactreps? Well..... First, they are what exactly what they claim: Bolt on w/1 inch drop. However, with some /mods/tweaking you can reverse orient them and get 3/4 down and...

Most guys run the k&n filter for the nut on the end and use T-6 15w40,oil.

I see it has new mirrors too! i hated the stock sound, replaced the mufflers and cat with delkovic. Did the air box mod, and then ordered a Nash flash. Much better bike. I also went to the taller rear tire (Avon as I recall) to get the Speedo closer. enjoy!

Well, we’ll see ordered tonight

seems like 1/3 the price of the Corbin with little to no discernable difference. Any insight anybody can share either way? thanks!

I would do it again in an instant. much better bike. I did put delkavicks on it first

I no longer remember what it was, but I once put a dual compound radial tire on my gen2. Nu-uh. It wore the “soft” soft outer part of the tread off very quickly. Never again. Single compound only for me edit: went and looked. Metlzer z8 was what I used and hated. I’m using shinko verges...

Turbo: Any news? Would a few sales on the line motivate Tuneboy? I’d love to have cruise, but if they can’t support you then no bueno for me. Seems like most vmax owners would buy if we had a quality solution…

Thank you Sean. At this moment I'm looking for LED = more lumens per watt. I have used higher wattage H$ bulbs in other applications though. so I appreciate what delivers. Anybody have any H4 LEDS they were able to plug and play and delivered a quality beam pattern?

Does anybody know if Tony was telling us he'd installed the Cyclops on his? Has anybody else tried? (sorry for the thread revival).
