Hello! New member here.

Well well. Finally joined this site too.

Some of you might know me from TY-forums or from Vmax4.com.

My daily ride is a ´96 Vmax-4 MountainMax 800. I also race my brothers Vmax 540 (84).

Here are some pics of that ole girl in action this winter in some speedruns.

Best for that sled is 158 kph in 2000ft in snow without any studs.

84 VMax

8) Welcome to the VMAX club! I also race a 84 Yamaha Vmax, I run mid 90's in 1000FT. The best that it's ever done is 101mph in 2100FT. :shock: It's sad when you can take a 23 year old sled to a Radar Run and YAMAHA the Field!! :P :P

Cool...... Love to see the old girls in action ! Ike, welcome to the site and that is a nice 84 ! Wouldn't it help on radar runs to lower the front with lowering tubes or tie the front end down ?

I´m all ears... :D :?: Pics and tech info how to make them are welcome. Same goes for my VX800.

Some more pics of that ´84 540 at the Sodankylä Speedrun.

It ran 143,5 kph in 1000 ft and 156,5 kph in 2000 ft.
