mania of changing exaust to pick 1 horse and destroy look

[EmperorGix]

@adamvmax Nothing to do with picking up a horse or two. I wanted something that sounded better. ;) At the time, this sounded great. I had Cobras on it before from the previous owner. Loved the look, not the sound. If I could do it again, I'd go with one of those new UFO slashcut systems. But, tastes will vary, eh? =) Thanks for the comment, and ride safe!

Very nice and it sounds perfect!

[EmperorGix]

@RepublicanDumbAss Thanks! I see you have great taste. ;)

Does anybody know whats faster, a V-max or FJ1200? These bike are similar in HORES POWER, but the FJ1200 is lighter in weight.

[EmperorGix]

@justinbillington While I can't really speak from experience, scuttlebutt says the Max would win this match-up, given riders of equal skill. One of the main reasons being that the FJ1200 is geared a bit longer. Again, this is not from experience, just an extrapolation. =) If anyone has any proof for or against, please, respond to this video! I'm sure we'd all love to know the answer, even if just for shiggles.

[fruithero]

Uhm you also have bikers who actualy use their bike as main transport rain, no rain, snow, thunder, whatever. And when that biker doenst have a nice garage yeah what ya going to do?

[VMaxPilot]

I have had both, 2, 1986 FJ1200's and 1, 2006 V-Max. The V-Max is quicker, the FJ is faster.

Ran out of gas with that tiny tank?

[harmageden]

@boston85018 ...i wish !! I would love to see a shootout between a ZL1000 & a MAX ..maybe someone could post that ... cheers

[BillyUlster]

@harmageden I have a zl 1000 and a v-max and theres no way the zl is quicker its not even close

[rohagan1971]

that souds SICK

[boston85018]

@harmageden yes the owner hasnt riden her much and all the fun is still waiting for someone to have the nuts to cracker open hehe

[boston85018]

@justinbillington in the straights the max will out perform the fj in shorter than mile runs but the fj has much longer legs and will run fast in long distance but it takes time to catch the max first tho

[boston85018]

@EmperorGix i have a 4-1 kerker and a stage 7 jet kit and my max sounds bad azz sounds like a v8 dragster with str8s.  i had an 88 with the cobras they sound better than stock and people will hear you moving

[adamvmax]

@EmperorGix vboost will kill fj

[adamvmax]

@EmperorGix sounds like v8.i like it.sometimes people change pipes because they think it will produce 200 horses.good luck on the road.
