Had the vmax out this weekend, went about 48 miles and it ran like a top. Every time I ride this thing it feels like it was the first time, I have had a lot of sleds over the years but nothing makes me feel like this one does. I would just like to Thank Yamaha for building such a Great sled. I still get excited every time I pull the trigger on the Might Max, It's hard to believe an 83 can pull as hard as this does. Well I just wanted to say Thanks Yamaha you made a lot of people happy even after all these years!! :D :D

JEFF, GREAT POST. I HAD MINE 100 % STRIPED AND TODAY I RIPED IT AROUND MY HOUSE WITH NO ANTI FREEZE LEAKING IN GEAR CASE. I HAD GERRY MURPHY ,s 1997 VMAX 4 800 HERE TO SO I WAS BUSY. ANYWAYS I ALSO MADE AFEW JETTING CHANGES PER UPDATED PORTING SPEC. AS FARR AS THANKING YAMAHA, I DOUBT THERE IS ANYBODY THERE THAT EVEN KNOWS WHAT A 83 VMAX IS. SEE YA AT THE WHITEOUT, I HAVE SOME STUFF FOR YOU. 3:16 (yammie tony)

that is SO true...

Talked to a dealer this weekend, he thought a 2002 Viper was a 2 cyclinder.

I BROUGHT UP THE VMAX 4 AT THE BIG EAST SHOW IN SYRACUSE THIS YEAR TO THE YAMAHA REP, HE LOOKED AT ME LIKE HE HAD NO CLUE WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. LET ALONE A 83 VMAX. 3:16 (yammie tony)

Ya I know, all the engineers that are responsible for these sleds have long been retired. I will bet they are like these sleds, they just keep on ticking, Maybe if we are lucky they are reading all these posts in all these websites and sitting back and smiling on what a great job they did. To those people I say Thanks!! Tony & Mark,see you guys at the White out. Tony hope you bring the Vmax, Will straighten up with on the parts.. Thanks Again..
