Sorry Guys- as i got the 1980 Enticer 340 fully restored for my son, but i've been working on too many "other" people's sleds that I will most likely not get to my Vmax until spring..maybe even summer time. Its too bad as i really want to get this beast going for this winter:( http://s8.po...

Re: 86-Max reflective graphics Package
(besides the obvious added red that fades to orange between reflective gold pinstripes from the back of the tunnel to the front of the hood) The tunnel graphics are a little different, and the pin stripes on the top of the hood are different (two gold stripes vs. gold/burgundy ) from what it looks l...

Re: 1987 Vmax project just beginning.....
I think i'm going to go with the 1986 graphics...i just like them better. Looks like i'll need tunnel graphics, ski graphics, and possibly one or both side panel graphics to make it happen.
Been restoring old furniture for the wifey lately.......I will get this going again soon....i promise!!!

Re: 1987 Vmax project just beginning.....

Re: UPDATED VMAX PORTING. 3:16
I was reading the whole Vmax performance guide the other day and am curious about this topic also...whenever i get a chance to start my 87' project that is. Do you still have to modify the Primary clutch Spider for the "special" primary spring they reccomend?? Or is there a clutch spring t...

Re: took both 81 srx out for a ride for the first time
Nice!!! Wow-look at the difference in the rear suspensions....does the one with the 83-up pro-action link ride a little better, or a lot better ??? I always thought that suspension rode pretty decent for its age, that is until they morphed them back into the early-mid 90's vmax's....then they were s...

1987 Vmax project just beginning.....
I have two Vmax's I plan on making one decent one with - a 1987 & 1986. The 86' was widened and i'm really looking at going back to the stock ski stance, so I may be interested in doing a "trade" for possibly some necessary parts I may need in exchange for the widend 86' frame maybe???...
