    I bought a 1997 Vmax with, I believe a stage 7 kit on it. This is a good kit for top end power but I'm looking for more low to mid range torque. I used to have a Stage 3 on my 93 Vmax and it hauled ***. Can I convert it back to a Stage 3? I have individual K&N filters and no air box. Any help...

    Stage 7 setup question

    Hi everyone, I'd like to have your thoughts on the Stage 7 kit before I buy one... I have a 2003 bike (pic attached) with a Hindle 4-1 exhaust and I'd like to improve its performance a bit, so a stage 7 with velocity stacks seemed a good option. Is this setup the best bang for the buck? If so...

    Questions regarding stage 7 kit.

    I have two carb racks sitting on my table. One came on the bike, one came off the bike. The second set MIGHT have a stage 7 kit installed. I looked at the needle sticky and the stage 7 needle looks identical to mine. However, the main jets or needles have no identifying marks of any kind. The...
