drag

All, For the last couple of weeks I have been mulling over the idea of having a Drag/Dyno day at the Grand Bend Motorplex in Grand Bend, Ontario. Track rental looks reasonable and it sounds like they may be willing to do a package deal for us. I am also looking at having a company here that...

Well, I just spent my hard earned $$ on a very rough 85 Vmax. I'm going to try and turn it into my drag bike and keep my 02 for everyday riding. This 85 needs plenty of work, the motor is pretty tight, the carbs need to soak about all winter long, the tank is rusty, the forks are bent, but...

i have read a lot of threads about drag bars and i dont mean to step on any if i am but i need a little input. i want to change to drags and flanders sound like the deal but pricey however they are wider than most which i am concerned about. i will be using bar end mirrors and dont want the...

Well, I'm selling my old bikes.... some old HD Sprints and a 1966 Yamaha YM-1 to make a little $$ for my winter project. I've been picking up a few parts here and there, and I finally went out to the garage and put some of it together and walla... I have a 1300 Venture motor that I need to get...

Just got home from the NHRA U.S. National Drags at Brainerd International Speedway(Minnesota). This was my first time seeing/Feeling 7000HP Top fuel dragsters. Man what a rush. They also had snowmobiles and Bikes. They only had about 8 sleds and 12 bikes. Also stopped at the Snake Oil...

Anyone interested in riding down there on the 20th? I want to check it out and I believe it is about a 3 or 4 hour ride. There is a map of the ride length in this thread http://www.vmaxforum.net/showpost.php?p=21214&postcount=24

just thought i would ignite a discussion. If a 600 pound 140hp Gen 1 can get in the 10s.... Than 680 pound 200hp Gen 2 can get in the 9s present your arguments pro or con......

O.K. everyone. Sturgis on the River went great. We missed our west of town friends greatly though. Many discussions at this event lead to the topic of DRAG RACING, as such gathering of Maxxers will do. Several people wanted to get together again soon and we were all thinking Cordova Dragway...

I'm looking at drag slicks right now. Wheelie Bars too. I have a completely stock swingarm and a 5.5" x 18" rear wheel. I'm finding slicks in 25" diameter for an 18" wheel in either a 5.5" wide carcass or a 7" wide carcass. My current tire measures 6.75" carcass width and clears the...

Hey, Are there aftermarket bars for the vmax? I just got my vmax and they handle bars a tad too wide for my driving style and position. I'd like some that are straighter and slightly shorter. Kind of like a drag bar. thanks, allen

I will be installing broomstick drag bars next week and I have never done this before. Is there anything I need to know before I begin? ie. special tools to remove grips etc etc Thanks!

Hello Guys. I am thinking about selling an engine and chassis I have. The engine was originally built and owned by Ron Holtzapple (PCW did the work and I have receipts for obscene amounts of money). Here is a link to the owner - http://vmaxoutlaw.com/pics/holtzapple.htm - Ron passed away a few...
