    Carb synch issue

    Perfect!! Thank you very much for the answer, it's obvious! I came to think that they continuously required packaging changes every certain mileage… It is logical then that I suffer from some bad adjustment and those documents are a great help; until today I had not found them in the forum...

    Carb synch issue

    Hello Fire-Medic. Sorry for answering late but I have a lot of work. Thank you for your advice, I'm already buying parts for the next review, for now the OEM jets... but about my question; do you have any answer? How often do the max require a change of jets and how often of carb rubbers? I...

    Carb synch issue

    Hello everyone. In my last carbs cleaning I had exactly the same problem referred to at the beginning by racerboy. It was impossible to synchronize, I only got it by adding a small thickness of coca-cola can at the end of the synchronization screw. In the last vehicle control they told me that...

    Difficulty shifting

    Hi Zaos. Will love to know the response, cause or solution after the call If it’s possible Sometimes I feel a rough-clunky 2nd to 3rd… and I’m searching causes or solutions in the forum when my work allows me.

    What's a Better Manual, Clymer or Haynes

    Hi Thomas. I know that I am not very normal and in my “literary tastes” are the motorcycle mechanics manuals. I don't think my opinion will help you decide, but since I like manuals so much... To be brief, I will say that I love to work with the cleanliness and simplicity of BMW workshop...

    Odds for a Gen 3 Vmax?

    I've dreamed of this several times... An updated revival of the gen 1 with electronic injection, abs, good lighting would be very good. I already saw the injection proposals in the forum and that would be its real update. Vintage is in fashion and whether you like it or not the VMax is always up...

    Rear shock top adjuster problem

    it was careful but not so much 😌... some force to unlock without breaking ... Fire-medic gives a good solution, it was the first thing I thought, download the shock absorber and try.

    Rear shock top adjuster problem

    Yesterday I had the same problem. It was impossible to move, locked at 4 and trying to get into point 3. Carefully, pressing down a little, I was able to move it, now it is normal I hope you made it and I hope it doesn't lock again, it doesn't look like a heavy duty piece.

    Yes Desert_max. silence makes some friends who visit me feel “floating in space”, others asked if the sound of the sea could not be stopped… Each island is a miniature universe. Like so many other things the limit of 90 is also relative…;)

    Yes! I’m the only one. Know that there was another max in the country and a dead in max too, many years ago, so it’s a very exclusive bike here. Some friends have Vulcan, Shadow, and BMW’s and mediums cc too. I’m in BoaVista island, you can see in google maps. There is gas station only in the...

    1st Gen V-Max African VMax

    Hi Colorado Phil! Yes, the official language here is portuguese but the popular language is kabuverdiano, a portuguese creole. here in the island the maximum allowed is 90kmh and don’t know if there is a road of 120kmh in the country. I lived outside and remember that the speed is normally, but...

    The “highway”is nothing more than a 20km road that goes to my village. on a small island dimensions are different and this little tour can be like a big trip. Everything happens inside the helmet!! I was a detractor of the asphalt on the island, the development also brings a great negative...
