Hey!
My name is Javier, a 28 yo guy who is in love with his Vmax 1200 1986 bike.
I bought it on May and since then, I have been working hard to modify with my mechanic.
We work a lot to solve problems:
My vmax was mixing water with oil so we had to change ALL gaskets of the engine and problem started in air box in the middle of the V engine. Gasket was burned so motorbine overheated a lot and then head gasket broke.
So we changed also all water system, seals and radiator as well to make sure all was new and working properly.
I installed led lights and following the group I found wich cables had to cut to put a relay led flasher. And Honda CB 450 dx headlight who gives nice retro look and I painted the engine as well.
Also bought a Daytona Cube Speedometer to remove the original one that need to be installed yet.
I found a nice tank cover modified from ebay that gives a bully look that I love
Then I bought a FZR 1000 exup fork adapted for the vmax and he installed without problem with 17" front wheel and now I am looking for a rear 17" wheel. I was thinking on buy a FJR 1300 rear wheel but I read that need to be adapted so...wondering...someone has one ready to mount on for sale? Located in Spain
Posting photos and nice to be here!
