Fresh from the machinist. $1200 plus paypal fees and shipping. Stock shaft drive hub on a new rim. This will give you very-close to the height of a stock wheel/tire combo, even w/a low-profile radial. Add a front radial on your stock wheel to change your handling dynamically!

Looks like I have a new set of wheel options available. I'll post up pictures as I get sets made. We will be using the All American Wheel blanks and a new machinist. Current patterns are the stock design similar to the MaxDaddy and Sportmax wheel. Also one like the UFO airframe. We may develope...

Back in Feb, I walked into a Yamaha showroom looking for parts for my bike and walked out a few hours later with a 15 VMAX. I just loved the look of this bike and couldn't resist the impulse! But now that I've blown my budget for the year I think I am going to have to do some of the work myself...

I posted in my thread about the front rotor buttons about this but figured I'd start a thread of its own. I have stock wheels and want black wheels, mine aren't in the best shape so I'm going to plasti-dip them. I used it on other parts and car wheels and think it's looks pretty good. For those...

Not mine, just posting the link, may be a good deal for someone. I sent him a text a couple hours ago but haven't heard back yet. https://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/mpo/5479564503.html Custom V-Max rear wheel - $400 Custom V-Max rear wheel and slick, bolt on, 170-B-60-18, Metzeler slick...

I have seen Vmax's using a rear lift with something like spools. Does someone have any info on this, and what needs to be modified ? Looking for something easy since installing the center stand is a pain...

Took my back wheel off today to do some work to it and noticed that one of the dampeners is no longer attached to the wheel. Two other dampeners, the inner steel sleeve have separated from the rubber. So I am going to have to change at least two dampeners. What is the best way to take them...

I'very been looking for a good front tire for my 1st Gen. It seems they only make bias ply for that size rim. Doesn't make much sense to me since we haven't seen bias ply tires on cars in over 30 years, so I went searching for a better solution. Many threads talk about retro fitting a sport bike...

I received my nice new Shinko 230 (170) tire and am planning to try and mount it myself. I found the thread concerning rear tire removal and don't think I'll have any issues getting the wheel off. What I was wondering about was greasing the bearings. My MAX has 19K miles and I've owned if for...

I didnt do the conversion on my bike. I have found a number of tweaks and changes done by a previous owner but cant find any details about the rear wheel. Its marked as 'wicked wheels' but trying to search for it, at least in the uk, brings up anything but wheel manufacturers. Instead it throws...

Ok. Here are the videos of my rear wheel I made before it got too dark. My bike currently turns left if I let go of the bars. Any ideas are welcome. Also, the wheel came with a machined brake caliper arm. It's probably half the thickness at the axle as a stock one. I don't know if that...

Tried a red pin stripe on my new black Carrozzeria's. I think it looks good.

I just started noticing a noise from my rear wheel when I'm riding, and I hear when I have the bike off and push it. It sounds like a few small clicks, and only on 20% - 30% of the wheel rotation. I can't tell if there's any performance issues. I've taken my brake pads out, in search for a...

Please help I am putting all new parts in my 1985 wheel that I got and I am confused. The spacer is smaller than the inside diameter of the wheel. Is that normal? As wheel there is a spacer flange that goes in and I'm wondering does it slip over the spacer, butt up to it, and which side goes...

Hi yall. Is anyone running a 21" front setup on their bike? I see a lot of 17" and 18" conversions on here, but the asthetics in my opinion are a little bit off. Not knocking the swap, especially from a safety standpoint... just wondering if anyone's done a swap on the front like that to restore...

Can anybody tell me what factory Vmax will dyno at at the back wheel,,,2000 stock....

is there anyone out there running a smaller size front? If so which? Someone said that 80's Ventures might be an option, but they are 18's. Yes, i like balloon tires :biglaugh:

Just tinkering around waiting for fork seals to come in when I decided I would ask a few questions. When I was riding last year, I noticed that I could hear a rubbing sound while riding. It was coming from the front and got louder when going fast and quieter slower. I'm not sure if it is the...
