Hey guys bought a 86' v-max over in michigan. It is really fast!!!!!!!!!!! I took it out on the
farm when i first got it and you could tell the carbs needed cleaning. So that was done
along with some lubing and track adjusting but i was so excited to get it going that I put the tops of the carbs on backwards and it ran like shit. My dad was laughing at me cause he thought i bought a dog. So i brought it in the barn looked at it and noticed an "R" on the left top of the carb i changed it took it out and almost broke the sound barrier lol. I dont think ive had the thing wide open yet its too hard to hold on to. Goes from 0 to 80 at the drop of a hat. My dad took it out and loved it and quote "wants to take it out one night".
