Differential '89 Vmax

[rockman1113]

I am in need of a new or used (in good condition) differential.

There's a couple of them on Ebay. Here's one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/yamaha-vmax...ash=item464db4a541:g:OfgAAOSwHQ9WYc1A&vxp=mtr


Sean Morley might also have one to offer. [email protected]

That's a final drive, Jim.
The man is looking for a differential.
Blax, being a knowledgeable individual, can you tell me where to find the differential on the max:ummm:
Cheers!

Yes indeed. I do have the rear drive units (should have Venture and Vmax both on hand).

I called the local parts supplier to get new prices and said final drive, the guy on the phone corrected me and said "you mean differential"
But after searching since I posted this I was able to find a rolling frame with everything I needed for $500 and it also has what my dad's bike needs. Thanks for the quick help guys

It's a final drive with constant ratio gears. A differential is a completely different thing that connects to two opposite wheels and allows for "differential" turning when in a curve so the outside wheel can turn more than the inner one and not drag it.

Well said that man!

It would perhaps be appropriate if the moderators used the correct terminology in the title of the 'Drivetrain' section?

.......I suppose that Mr rockman1113 may have a trike though?

LOL in that case should not call a yomama dealer for parts.

I always call it a differential or a pumpkin. It's a you know what I mean defination:biglaugh:

 

[MaxMidnight]

But why not use the correct terminology?

But why not use the correct terminology?

Because my whole life it was called a differential or a pumpkin. It's all I knew to call it, until this thread.

 

[one2dmax]

Yamaha lists it as the "Rear Axle Gear" and though maybe not the correct terminology it has always been called the rear diff. Pumpkin would also work if you're trying to be politically correct. I have called it all the above and even simply rear end.

 

[tothemax93]

This is no big deal, but it made me think of other things people call stuff, that are wrong. In my world of construction, My best example is a cement mixer. It's a concrete mixer. Cement is an ingredient in concrete. Hijack over:eusa_dance:

.....or SCBA and SCUBA cylinders being referred to as "oxygen tanks". They are filled with filtered, compressed AIR, never pure oxygen.
This ends my jack. Maybe.
Cheers!

Would black paint make my rear end look smaller?:biglaugh:
