bought a used vmax last year, in barely running condition; ended up having to tow it to my house as the throttle cable snapped out of the holders.
starter would barely turn, so i replaced the solenoid with a $8 Chinese piece as the oem is like $80.
solenoid worked for awhile then started...

I'm a small old guy and for sure I do...
I have a new to me 1986 V-Max.
Bike came with aftermarket mirrors mounted but the OEM ones in a box (although badly scratched up).
I bought what was described as a NOS OEM mirror (even came in an official Yamaha box).
When received this "new" one I wanted to polish it and happened to...
I'm running Carrozzeria wheels on my 07 Vmax, so running a 120 tire up front, and a 180 tire on the rear.
What tires or tires combos are everyone running?

Hi all,
I am considering replacing my front brake and clutch master cylinders/ handles/ reservoirs, mainly because of a screwed up (pun intended) bolt that keeps the lid on the front brake reservoir (I brought this up in another thread, but affordable machine shops in Brooklyn are hard to...
Hey guys! Quick question, a search yielded no solid answer.
I have a 2003 Vmax. It has a 17" Dymag rear wheel, and an 18" Dymag front. Will these wheels still use stock style rotors? Do I need to order anything special, or just rotors for an 03 Vmax? Rear rotor is looking slim, and I'm...

I bought a set of jap crap lights that look cool. Back went on no problems. Front only has two wires. Have everything working but no running lights now. How can I get them to work? That extra wire I'm left with for each side because I only used two, can it be spliced into somewhere?
Has anyone installed one of these aftermarket radiators? Any issues with installation?
Claims 30% increase in capacity, so does that mean keeps the motor cooler?
Also, can these be painted black without hurting the cooling abilities?
I have already changed the thermostat, but the oem...
From what Ive seen on the Galfers, and the Toby Huang knock offs, they are 5 mm thick new. Does anyone know what the minimum thickness for these rotors?
Thanks
This has been discussed a bit on other threads but like I'd said earlier, I would post details as to what I found when I got home and got everything fixed.
So, A bit of history

Hello All! I'm new here and just ordered my first VMAX, can't wait! I intend on breaking the bike in for 500-1000 miles stock, then upgrading the exhaust, flash, and maybe air intake. I'm looking for some advise on these mods.
I love the look of Vance&Hines but that's only 09-10, I love the...
I'm in the process of gathering parts for my 89' max turbo project and came across the inexpensive performance connecting rods on eBay. I see that they come with ARP 2000 bolts which is a reputable piece but am concerned with the quality of the rods and small end bronze bushing. Just wondering...
