    R6 rotors on an 85 max

    I have a line on a couple of well priced front rotors from an '01 yamaha R6. Will they bolt on to my stock '85 Max front wheel? I'm pretty sure they will, but would like some confirmation. I already have Hyabusa calipers, pads, and the lines, so if these rotors will work for me, all I would need...

    '97 Max owners question

    I was looking at a lower triple from a '97 on ebay and noticed a bolt on the right side instead of the regular steering stop nub. Wrote the guy asking if the stop had been broken and built back up with a bolt....he said no, that all '97 Max's had a bolt on the right side for a stop. Frankly...

    Is The Second Gen Max For Me?

    I am kinda thinking I would like this bike but I am not sure, I have a first gen and I like it except the handling. I also have a 01 ZX12R that I bought new and I like it and no complaints. I have 05 ZX10R and its way to uncomfortable for me. I also have a 05 Aprilia Tuono and I like it other...

    Max vs FJR Rearend

    Does anyone know if the Gen 1 FJR rearend bolts up to a Gen 1 Max and what is the ratio difference between the two. Is the FJR taller like the Venture is. I believe the Gen 1 max is a 3.66 and Venture is a 3.33, but don`t know about the Gen 1 FJR. I am thinking the Gen 2 FJR came out in 07.

    Acquired another Max

    Well, I went and bought a second Max. As some of you know, my other one had recently developed a knock of unknown origin. I travel extensively during the summer months, so a quick rebuild/rehab was going to be impossible for me to manage. I shopped around briefly for running stock motor to slap...

    5.5" rim max tire width

    I bought a 1985 Vmax today. It has lots of mods including a 5.5" wide suzuki rear wheel. The tire is quite worn and should be replaced. I would like to know what the safe maximum size tire I can run on this wheel. Thanks, Tony

    sold my max

    Well after two years being without my sv1000s just had to sell the vmax. I liked the straight line power but missed everything my SV did well. I posted a craigslist ad and she sold within 45 minutes! But you could not find a cleaner max around here. Hopped a flight to Georgia, paid for my new...

    Sharky's Max project...

    Before the Max idea came up my plan was to graft a 650 Dragstar swingarm into an XJR frame to create a harley softail style bike... I really like the low seat height, but of course we have a fuel tank to deal with... So, in short, modern USD front end with springs to suit, remove stock...

    85 max with an 83 venture ecm

    I have a budy with a vmax that cuts out at 4k, tach dives to 0 and recently found out it has an 83 venture ecm. Are there any problems with ecm in this bike? What are some common causes for a bikes tach to dive like its been unplugged?

    couple problems with my new v max

    I have an 05 v max. It runs pretty rich, sometimes has a slight hesitation when you gap it wide open on the road( at cruising speeds of 65-80) the plugs seamed a lil black so put new ones in and didn't help at all. The bike has a jet kit ( before me no idea what size) k&n, and a UFO street pro...

    Chopping up my Max

    Salutations, I've been lurking for a while now, first post! My 2000 Vmax is my first bike, and I laid her down once (I learned the hard way that she doesn't like to corner), scratching her right intake cover and exhaust, breaking off the right turn signal, and basically ******* up her...

    Leak - Clutch Push Rod - 85 max

    Any thoughts here, I think my vmax is leaking engine oil out of the clutch push rod. I also noticed my 85 motor does not seem to have a place for a seal (around the clutch pushrod that goes into the engine) unlike like my 86 motor. Was this a design change. Thank you
