    Bought 06 vmax with "H" rated tires?

    The guy I bought my vmax from said he just put new tires on it, it had 6500 miles on it. Anyway, he said the tires are "H" rated instead of "V" rated. I think "H" rated tires are rated for 130mph and "V" rated are rated for 150 mph. My bike wobbles at 125mph but I don't think its the tires??? I...

    My new bike (06 max) Can this be right?

I just bought an 06 with 2k miles and The guy dynoed it stock and I believe it was around 100hp and around 90ft/Ibs of torque. He then installed Kerker 4 into 1 exhaust, K&N filters and a stage 7 jet...

    Totally Stock 06 Dyno Test

    This sheet came with the bike I purchased last week. I'm glad I didn't pay for it. There is no TQ curve. Bike had just over 800 miles on it at the time. Test was done by the PO at the dealer he purchased it from after it was serviced.

    Crimp fix on an 06?

    Is the "Crimp" fix still necessary on the '06 model year? Vmax Outlaw says "Older bikes seem to benefit more from this modification." I'm not very mechanically inclined, so if yamaha has improved this connection or there isn't much benifit from it, I might avoid it altogether. However, If some...

    New 06 or 07 Prices

    I was at a local dealership the other day and they have a new 07 sitting there and I was just wondering what others in this forum have paid (total - out the door) for the newer Vmaxes. I think I got a pretty good deal on my 02 and was just wondering what a "good deal" on a new Vmax would be...
