Does the mini screen make much difference in the amount of wind that hits the rider?

 

[maleko89]

Absolutely. Of course, not as much as full windscreen.

 

[KRL0215]

welcome to the site.....great lookin ride you have there

 

[Dreamster66]

I too think so.
I had alot of people telling me that I'd have more wind on my face unless I got into the tank (laid down)
But I feel it kinda direct some of it to the left and right.... you can see the way it was designed.
I love it....wouldnt get rid of it for anything....plus.....looks awesome too!

Max?
Are the wheels chromed or are they polished aluminum?

I too fell in Love with the Max in 85 when it first came out. And 21 years later I own my first one. I still have the picture I clipped out of a magazine back in 85, still hanging on my bulletin board.

They are chrome...I wish I still had the poster from 85..

Your Max looks sweet. I want my rims chromed. It's on my lenthy to do list. LOL!

I don't have an actual poster, that would be nice. I don't remember what mag it was in , but they had an ad for the VMax, I cut it out and hung it on my buletin board. And to this day there it hangs.
