Hello. I'm trying to find a mechanic here in Iowa who is capable of working on the carbs of my gen 1. My poor bike has been worked on by multiple mechanics who claimed to know how to work on a Vmax but ended up making it worse. I need someone familiar with this great bike to not only get it...

Hello everyone! I want to first thank everyone on this forum that have the generous, helpful attitude we all rely upon in the darnest of times. I have been rummaging through these forums for a few weeks and recently picked up a VMAX myself. Over the years, I've had twelve cycles. Anything from...

I have a buddy getting out of riding and wants to sell his Harley and I've been looking for a 05/06/07 Vmax for awhile. Maybe we can kill two birds with one stone.:a014: 07 was the first year for the 96 inch engine. 9xxx miles, FI, 6 speed, Rush slip-ons, hwy pegs, never down or dropped...

Not in the market for another myself at the moment. Anyone looking in Iowa? Sounds like it could be the shift segment to me. However not being able to ride it and confirm tranny works leaves questions and negotiating room. The link: http://desmoines.craigslist.org/mcy/2516041496.html

This pic was taken in a small town in Iowa yesterday I believe when we were having some severe weather. There were several tornados in the area when this pic was taken.

Anybody know any good machine shops in Iowa for motorcycle work? My father in law is needing some machine work done, and for the life of me I can't think of one.

Lets see if we can get a V-max presence felt here this year. http://www.abateiowa.org/districts/d15/toyrun07.jpg It is a police escorted M/C parade for a great cause. The ride snakes through Davenport, IA for about a 1/2 hour ride stopping all traffic along the way. Usually a strong showing...

A few of us plan on hitting up the Indianola Bike Night on September 21st. Last "Bike Down to I Town" of the year. Just seeing if there are any local boys that wanna ride down and perhaps jump on the dyno.

Nathan here from Davenport, IA. I have recently become the Iowa chapter leader for the VMOA. I am going to be trying to set up some rides and get togethers here in the Quad Cities. I usually make it to at least one Bike Night a week around here (usually Ducky's in Andalusia, IL). Please PM...
