Picked up my first 'Max...

[OKCVmax]

Welp... I got one finally. Been looking for a while. It's a '94, 21.5k miles, pretty much stock. It needs fork seals, tires, a rear brake rotor amd a few other seals and stuff. Got it for $3200.

I think I am officially the youngest vmax rider @ 16 years old.

Congrats. I'd say you are the you youngest. I thought I was a youngter on here at twice your age. Good to see the appreciation for a killer bike has no generation boundaries.

Looks like it has some of our Muscle parts on there? Chrome Scoops and a Full Reshaped Seat Set (front and rear).

What's wrong with the rear rotor?

It's grooved up pretty bad. I ordered a new one already so I'm checking that off of my list.

The scoops are chrome, it's staring to cone off on the top of them though. I'll have to get that fixed eventually.

He did say he had the seat re-done, is that one of yours? It's super comfy! Definitely better than the original. I think he's name was Glenn, maybe you remember him.

I'm super pumped about the bike! Going to try getting all of the major stuff done by June 10th so I can take it to a local car/bike show. Maybe it will win.

Cool bike. I hate to sound like an old dude but based on my memory of being 16 Im lucky to be alive. I was an idiot. With a 250c 2 stroke race replica. It was legal, crazy!

Ride safe with that bike. Its a lot of weight and power.
Dont take this as talking down to you, its more we want to see you here enjoying your bike long enough to be a cynical old biker too!

Hahahaha. Yep, I know. It's definitely a bike that can get you hurt quick. Just have to take it easy for a while around me get used to being on it.

Marsmax, I don't think I'll be getting a gen 2 anytime soon, those are a little too expensive hahaha.

Good looking bike, congrats. If you need some help, there are several people in the OKC area, and I live in Lawton.

Nice ride, be safe, have fun!!!

 

[Regular Guy]

I was about your age when they first came out back in '85 lol! I wanted one BAAAAAD! It took me until a few moths ago to finally buy one. And, like you, I need to put some money into it to get it 100% right mechanically.

With that said, welcome to the club!

Dude, I got bit my the MAX bug many moons ago. I was 16 or so, goofing around with my boys at a MC shop.. Could not afford it back then, but that poison had been in my blood ever since I sat on it. In my opinion, it was the meanest mother-F in the place. 4 years go, I happened across one, being sold not far from the job. Of course this made it easy to go see at lunch time. I'm 51 now.. That's some long lasting poison man:rofl_200:. Good luck and ride safe bro.. :clapping:

 

[firebolt]

Congrats! Good looking bike (I could only dream of having one at your age!)

Cripes, at 16, I got my motorcycle endorsement, and promptly lost it within a month for riding like an a-hole.

You've got good taste in bikes - and not to sound like your mom, but watch your butt, every car on the road is out to kill you.

Oh, But have fun!

 

[Bill Seward]

My son Ian learned to ride on my Max. He still thinks I'm gonna give it to him. Yeah, right...
