96

I mentioned in the 'new member' thread that I used to own a 96 Vmax, and recently bought another 96 Vmax. Before selling my last one years ago, I removed the Harlan Shiftlight I had re-built in an aluminum housing. It was a hacksaw, drill, and sandpaper affair that turned out pretty good IMO...

Hey there, today I rode my Vmax on a very hot (102*F) day for about an hour or so. Once i returned home I adjusted the Idle a little bit in the drive way as the bike kept dying at some stop lights after idling awhile. Once I got the idle set i went to shut the bike off via the key switch and the...

Alright so I just got back from the Dyno Lab with my pre-owned pre-loved vmax. I didn't know all the mods done to the bike before the test but what I did know was that I have the UFO quadzilla pipes and a K&N filter. The results..... not so hot. Max HP.... 94 at 115mph and 8575 RPM. I was...

Well last week, some jack-hole backed into my Max at work. Pushed it off the stand and it fell over on the left side. Lucky for me, a co-worker saw it, the guy stuck around, and had insurace. So the adjuster came by Monday, and now I just have to wait for the finance company to endorse the...

Here's my dyno sheet & video clip (thanks Brett) from Captain Kyles dyno party this past Saturday. A lot of smoke on decel - valve seals perhaps? Sean Morley has already given me some tuning advise. Any thoughts are welcome... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQrb--vZWz0

Greetings. Am in the process of replacing a lunched engine in an '88, with a '96 engine. (2 snapped conrods- not my work, but I reckon it was a nasty burnout..) Am I right in thinking that I could run the later ignition system if I can get a '90 on wiring harness, and a '90 on TCI or Dyna 3000...

I have not paid attention lately what engines are selling for. I have a 96 model with 23,000 miles on it I am thinking about selling. It needs a couple valves put back in the front head & the head reinstalled. here is the story a guy brought me this bike because it was missing out & I told him...

Hi Guys, I'm in a bit of trouble with my 1996 vmax. It is currently in the shop. Here is the breakdown of what occurred and what was done. I noticed one of the carbs was leaking a bit and the bike was bogging down intermittently. I have a reputable mechanic who has worked on my other bike (79...

Spotted this on Craigslist. http://littlerock.craigslist.org/bar/1694787423.html

President of Poland Lech Kaczynski, his wife Maria and other 94 people from Polish Goverment, Army and Social Groups died tragicly in a plane crash near Smolensk Russia at 10-4-2010. Let them rest in piece.

Well the trip home went as planned. I was asked for some better pictures so I snapped a few before I headed out Coyote hunting. I did go skating around the block once before my better judgement told me to put her away. I cant wait till spring time to really get to try her out. The color is a...

Well after all the info I recieved on here about the 85 I was looking at I found a nice 96 Max a lot closer to home. After bout an hour of haggleing we reached a deal of $3000 plus tax and tags. The wife might kill me because I am a bout a grand over budget but oh well. I have added a few dealer...

ran my 96 on the dyno for the first time to day. It has kerker exhaust, stage 7 jet kit and has had the vboost removed so its on all the time. Im posting my run i was a little dissapointed but yall tell me what you think

My '85 has a piss poor charging system. I tried the crimp fix, soldering the 3 stator wires to the r/r unit, and running a ground wire from the unit to the battery. I just finished wiring the positive wire from the r/r directly to the battery, too. Start things up cold. (Battery reads...

I have a friend who has an 85 and he's having some starting issues, we did some research on the web and foud that a rec/reg from a 1996 and up greatly inproves the starting .....However the old one has: 3 white, 1 red. The new one has: 3 white, 1 red, and a BLACK wire. Do I just ground that...

I have 96 VMax with 23,000 miles and no modifications. My problem is after the bike warms up and i take off, it seems to lose a cylinder randomly. it will surge and pop out the exhaust and in to the air box. but after about 5 miles it goes away. then every once in a while it will pop in the...
