Biker Dash. Location : Waterville, Maine. I would love to get copies of both the Clymer and Haynes manuals for my Originally Posted by Biker Dash. Alex r. I'm after a Cdi unit for an 85 vmax is there another bike which has the same unit or does anyone know where I can get a one not paying the earth. When re-installing the generator, starter clutch and flywheel does the flywheel suppose to have any back and forth play and wiggle? Once it's re-installed there should NOT be any wiggle back and forth as far as I remember.

Absolutely not. The flywheel is keyed onto the shaft, and securely tightened. Location : In Colina, little town near Santiago de Chile in south america. Hi vmaxers Someone can tell me if is possible to put a tire little bit wide than the original in my vmax 92 without modify the fork or rim?
