impressions

So I decided to try Dynabeads after reading up a little bit on the idea. Over this winter, I put new Shinko Tourmaster 230 tires on the bike. 170 in the back, 120 in the front. Initial rides have proven to be very smooth when cruising at speeds up to 100 mph. I haven't gone faster yet...

I have been looking to replace my original coils since last year when I bought the bike. The main motivation that I had was that the idle would get progressively worse while driving around in town during hot days. Eventually the idle would get so bad that the bike would stall out. I went...

So I've had my bike for the better part of a week now and I've got mixed emotions. First off, the bike is everything I ever imagined it to be when it comes to the image it conveys. Friends, family and strangers alike all agree that it is "bad ass". Definitely not your everyday cookie cutter...

Wow just wow!!!! Rode the VFR to work today 50miles. This is by far so far the most comfortable smoothest bike I have rode! And it handles like a dream!!! My ass didnt hurt one bit. It gets up and goes not close to the max but it does ( exhaust, emissions delete, and power commander will help...

My seat arrived as promised. After unpacking I took the time to inspect the workmanship, from the beautiful stitching to the rivets rather than staples the seat is top of the line. Installation was a snap once I figured out where the hole needed to be drilled to mount the rear section. Once on...

My shifter FINALLY came in today,and i immediately bolted it on to the ole 85,and took her for a real (through the gears)ride today.And let me just say,that i think i am going to become addicted to the v-boost!:eusa_dance:.The bike ran flawlessly,very smooth,and much stronger than i had...

I know everyone knows how good kerkers are but I figured I would share my first impressions. Right now I only have the stock kerker baffle due to the comp baffle being on back order but it didn't stop me from trying out the new exhaust. Its night and day better than my old ufo exhaust. In their...

Hi All, I got the privilege to test ride the 2nd gen yesterday that my Dad is looking to buy, no word to describe it so ill try to make one: wowholyshit! lol It was absolutely incredible! I never thought my Vmax would feel like a toy until I climbed back on after riding the Gen 2. Only problem...

Ok I finally picked up my 89 Vmax on Saturday. Because of the weather I only got the opportunity ride it home. Today I rode into work, about an hour ride down the Florida Turnpike. These are my first impressions: Let's get the obvious out way, brakes are getting redone (this was apparent...

Long story, bail now if you don't want to hear me ramble. It all started 18 years ago. It was a few weeks before my 12th birthday. I went to the bike shop with my dad as he was looking for a replacement for his KZ 1300. Our eyes fell upon the VMAX for the first time and it was like nothing we...
