TOPIC: Hello from Hyde Park, NY

Hello from Hyde Park, NY 11 months 3 weeks ago #1

Hi Everyone,
Just picked up a brand new 2010 Red VMAX. I had a 2006 VMAX which I loved but traded it for a roadliner because my wife wanted to go riding more. Well after two years and maybe four rides I decided it was time to trade the roadliner for the new VMAX. I only had a chance to ride it 90 miles back from the dealer but I love it. I already ordered the Corbin peg lowering kit. If anyone has any info on this or any other useful tips I would appreciate it.

Welcome and boy do you have a lot of reading to do.

Feel free to search your questions and even resurrect a thread to ask a question or feel free to post up your questions but it may take up to a good minute to receive a reply.


And don't forget to post up some pics.

First mod: Remove the Warning label from the top cover. Instant 2HP gain...

Second mod: chop the tail. (so now the smoke rolls out from under the rear better)

Third: Pipes to your liking / air filter mod.

Fourth: flash for it all by Guru

Hang on and enjoy!!

FYI check for recall info.

Welcome,
Once upon a time, I worked in Highland but lived in Mahopac.
Left NY over 10 years ago & lived in 3 different states since then.
Use to always ride up Route 9.
Moroney's Harley poker run, etc...
Congrats on the new bike!

Doughboy, welcome here and congrats on getting a 2010 Vmax. We are all in love with the beast, so you'll fit right in if your grin is as wide as ours while riding :winkwink: !

At the end of November my family & I will visit New York. Sad to say can't bring my Max :sad:

But we'll enjoy our stay big time, I'm sure!
