At long last, I have just bought my dream bike - Yam V-MaX
1997, Full Power, Silver, 25000 miles and a private plate
I collect from Redcar on Saturday
Does a VBoost system still qualify as EXUP, or do I have to resign when I sell my Thunderace?
Exup/V-Boost? Tomato/Tomato? Same meat - Different gravy
All the same innit? It's still a yam

Very nice!!
There was a guy in Germany a few years back who did stupid things to his, awesome performance, and it actually went round corners!!
Think it was in PB or FB ages ago. Will see if I can find some pics somewhere

Can't find it
Don't think I dreamt it though.......
If i remember correctly, he binned the shaft drive and put chain and sprockets on, replaced all the suspension with sports biks stuff, put it on a major diet and tuned it to the region of 200 bhp!!!
Take it the V Max is still coming out on all the ride-outs then?

Of course - She's going to do the John O'Groats to Landsend sponsored ride too
My only thing so far is to replace the standard shocks for some nice looking XJR Ohlins ones.
Forks have been resprung and had a recent oil change.
She has also had new plugs, oil and filter, Diff oil, new K&N panel filter, new battery and new tyres within the last 1000 miles, so I just have to concentrate on riding it for the time being
