Not more than 3 tenths, lol....Vmax is a joke for racing. Nice street cruiser, but not a race bike at all.

Built an original Max back in '85, with help from Vance & Hines. The sound of that 4 into 1 on the V4 was absolutely unreal! Loved it even more after we installed a steering damper!

Kennedale, Dallas RaceWay?

Hope to see you there soon...Buddy and i trying to get in the 9's and i think he has a better chance than i.. :S

Maybe the Motorcycle Gods will shine down on me that night..We want cooler weather to come b4 we get back out there tho..

i'll bet you can not get 200ft in 1 second .. with a 1.80 60ft you should be looking at around 3 seconds to cover 200ft .. a fast bike covers 330ft in a 3.70 ..

you done lost the race with your negotiations..

if he's giving 200ft take 200ft don't take 30ft..DUH

QTip, Dallas Raceway is closed this weekend, maybe next weekend, really I wanted to race a big mouth vmax owner that thinks he is unbeatable, let me know when you can make it, I want to give 200ft and I get the hit, that's allot of land to be giving up but I don't mind lol, it's all in fun with you.

Wee, i would like to get the weather a lil' cooler out.. Still too hot to run it for me...80deg. would be great.

And i don't think you will find a VMax owner that thinks he can out run anything out there, unless he is new to the bike..

I have some years and close to 60000miles and i KNOW what my bike can and can't to do..

It's not made to fast up top with the the sporties, but it's fun to run em' on the street's tho... And twisties..Bikes great in the back country runnin' it..

I'll hit you up when i go out ur way next time for the 1/4 mile.. 200ft. is a lot
