What 1/4 mile times can one expect from a stock gen1 Max? no mods, 200lb rider with good skills on the track..........................
 
vmaxes make all of their good times because of good 0-60s.

if it was your first time at the track i wouldnt be surprised if you were only running 12s
 
If you want a serious answer you are probably going to get a low 12 to mid 11. A feather weight with excellent skills and prepared bike will get into the 10's but not by much. My best on a bone stocker with crappy tire was 11.40's. I think a decent tire would get me 11.20's.

my best time,stock motor, chain drive and stupid low air in the rear tire! and as you see by RT, lacking "skills"

Twisted, the 123mph shows a 10.90 pass if you can get the 60' down into the 1.6's. Of course chain drive along with a shorter wheel I am betting is another reason for the quicker pass. Might have even had some other work maybe?
 
I've had 2 separate bone stock 1985's here.

My best times on BOTH of them were 11.27-8 @ 121 & 122mph. I run the OEM Dunlop Qualifiers. I was at or slightly above 200lbs the last time I ran and I believe the track sits at 600-650' above sea level.

What 60ft times could I expect from a stock Max with good track conditions and lots of practice? And what kind of MPH would I see on average through the traps?
 
1.60's to 1.80's for the 60'
120mph for 1/4 mile trap, 100mph for 1/8 mile
 
The best time I ever got out of my 99 model bone stock with the exception of Marks pipes was 11.19 @ 119 mph WITH A 1.69 60 foot & I was 160 lbs at the time. I am a little over on the weight now.LOL
