180hp and 120 torque is freaking beautiful numbers. Bet that bike is a blast to ride out to the coast or weekend cruising with some wide open pulls on the highway.
It’s a blast, I’ll never let mine go, I have the 1st year of this 2nd generation vmax. These had to be pre ordered and you received in advance while waiting 2 special emblems that mount on each side of the frame showing what # you have. Mine is 2009 vmax# 0262 These bikes are flat out awesome and it’s the only bike I’ve owned that spins the rear on command right off the throttle. My R1 lifts the front wheel while the vmax just lights up the rear tire.
I'm from Canada, sent out my ECU to Moore Mafia to get reflashed after I did a few mods to the exhaust and airbox, they received it, flashed it and sent it out the same day. I notice a significant difference in the horsepower and torque. Great sound too!!!!! I highly recommend that you send your Vmax ECU to Moore Mafia, you won't be disappointed!!!!! Thanks Chris!!!!!!!!👍
@robroussel2530 Hey man, I had a couple questions. I have a 2018 VMax I bought new and have no mods to date. The only things I did to the bike were LED's, horn, Ventrue F1 dash cam system, hardwire radar detector to my Valentine 1, but nothing to the engine. Did you notice anything different in the bike or dash after the upgrade, other than performance? Did you do anything with pipes? I really like the look of the VMaxs pipes and would never change them. I know you will gain performance with a full exhaust, but the bike has more than enough power as it is. Was there anything else you needed to do when you received the ECU back, or was it simply plug and play?
THanks so much!!
@@glickmpb I added a KN air filter, removed the cat and added a Voodoo pipe system, it didn't run right because fuel to air ratio, once I got it flashed, it was absolutely night and day, trust me, Chris Moore does what he says he's gonna do. I am 100% satisfied with what he did to my ECU. Once you get the ECU back, you plug it in and turn the key, start it, let it idle, shut it off and turn it on again. Very easy, they send you instructions on what to do. It's a walk in the park.
@@robroussel2530Rob, thanks for the reply! I really didnt want to mess with my VMax because its a back hole of headache. I have enough of that with my Harley. However, this ECU upgrade, for the price, is pretty phenomenal! I installed the Vantrue F1 Dash Cam system... Its incredible!!
@@robroussel2530 I literally just sent mine in to be flashed! I really hope its as good as you say it is! :)
@@glickmpb How your Vmax doing?
Those beasts have been on my bucket list forever. A 9sec power cruiser with 8sec potential dont you just love motorcycles
Mine too! Right along with getting it to 200mph.
@@SC-fj2zp 200mph?? bwahahaha
@@clutchpack1969 the old model has ready done it, Bill Warner did it, RIP Bill Warner
I used to ride with a buddy who had a Yamaha V-Max and he didn’t have any trouble keeping up.
Imagine if he had it tuned lol
it's not ducati diavel bro
Keeping up with what? Lol. Such an odd comment.
@@berube361
He meant keeping up with the conversations.
Nice innuendo 😉
About time someone does a vmax i would like Moore mafia fully built it like the fastest all motor gsxr also run it at the track and see the how fast it goes back in 90/95 saw a guy with a vmax at the track chain drive it was super charged it would stand up in every gear and still run 6.30's on the 1/8 mile 👌
Please build a street strip vmax that can run 5.50's 1/8 mile 1.30/1.35 sixty ft 124mph or better chain drive of course no bar a shop out of Arizona think ufo performance or something 10 years ago build 2 one with no bar it ran 9.40's the other vmax flat slick on nitrous with a wheelie bar 8.80's at like 157mph gotta be different everybody Suzuki or Kawasaki none a vmax it gets boring watches same same same doesn't raise an eyebrow vmax there's a big cult following this Brutus bike just like when i started racing cars back in 90/95 before transition to bikes everybody Ford chevy Ford chevy no one was racing a pontiac so i built a 1978 pontiac trans am with a 455 cubic inch bored 60 over 468 cubic inch pontiac boy i was hurting the ford's and chevys even the dodge vipers with there new v10 450hp viper point is vmax needs to make a name for itself yea we know you can build Suzuki Kawasaki vmax deserves to be put back on the map but who's willing your good and known for 2 brands now would like to see you recognized for a vmax in this era give us something different and known let's see 👀
I ran 5,89 on 1/8 mile with 1,475 60 ft. For faster times you would need a wheely bar or a longer swing arm.
@VmaxGen2 that's impressive I'd be happy with 5.80's but was it chain drive and any modifications to the transmission like under cut gears?
@@vmaxgen2842 would love to see that. Sorry I had this bike as well. I don't know but of one person who did that and that was jon Cornell with a 50 shot of nitrous
I love seeing all kinds of different bikes on the dyno. You guys nail it.
Yamaha built the V-Max badass in the 80’s and kept making it badassier, but you have made it the badassiest.
Thank you
nutritious delicious badassiest bishes.
I have learned so much about bikes from watching your channel. Appreciate it Chris! I’ll be in line to get that ECU flash and dyno tune for my gen 3 Busa as soon as you crack it! - Amy
Brock's Performance have a very in-depth CZcams channel also. I learned a lot there as well.
I have this Vmax. It's already 160-170 hitting the rear wheel stock and about 200 at the crank. With the tune I will say it will be around 180ish at the rear wheel.
Butt Dyno?
@@GClary1 LOL. It was my guess before watching the video.
@@GClary1 bike wasnt exactly stock from the start , that after market exhaust most likely gimped default tune/power , new cool sounds tend to confuse people into the illusion of more power/speed. always retune when swapping parts like that. If not you can actually lose power. the bike is suppose to have 200 crank bhp from the factory ( yes they do lie sometimes but its generally 5 or 10bhp off, )
Great video! Although I can't afford one these newer Vmaxs I do have a 1986 Vmax with custom aluminum intake running a Holley 500, sniper nitrous plate and on E85. Work with what you have...lol I do like when you Dyno various motorcycles though! Very interesting stuff..👍
My Dad had a '86 VMax, the very bike I started getting street time on at 16yrs old... Had SuperTrapp's on it when he bought it. We then switched to the Generation 1 Dale Walker 4 into 1 Holeshot Exhaust System, V-Boost delete, Carb Re-jet, Cams, and K&N Breather... Bike was an ANIMAL. I'm in the market for 1 now, absolutely LOVE VMax's IYKYK
I got to ride one with a exhaust and a flashed ecu and it was an absolute MONSTER of a bike! It came up a little on me in 2nd. I have a royal star which is a 1300 V4 and there's no comparison between the two!! Those 1700 VMAXs are in a class of their own and I've rode some pretty wild bikes!
As always like button smashed!!! Big gains there!!
I bet that is a very fun scoot!!! Nice upload ✌🏽
Yamaha Vmax...... Japan sticking its thumb in Harley's eye.
Utterly SHOCKING how restricted these are.
In Harley’s eye ? I mean it’s pretty much apples to oranges. Kinda like comparing a Honda Civic to a corvette. lol the Harley being the Honda Civic. They aren’t built for power or even for performance at all if we’re being honest. Don’t forget this bike has 4 cylinders and every Harley ever made either had 1 cylinder or 2. lol
@@My.name.goes.here. It's a cruiser. You might call it a standard perhaps, less so a low slung foot-forward machine. Only thing in the big twin cruiser class that even attempted to throw down and just build stupid performance is a custom with a monster S&S engine. All the Screamin' Chicken parts can't get HD close.
But of course HD isn't after the big performance, never has been. Mostly after cosplay and cult branding.
@@exothermal.sprocket having owned a first gen vmax I can tell you that the vmax was and still Is marketed by Yamaha as a muscle bike. Definitely not a cruiser.
@@davidleonard8369 A muscle what, however? If you really really really don't want it to be called a cruiser you'll never let that happen, but regardless, it's a muscle something, not merely a "bike".
@@exothermal.sprocket maybe you missed the mid eighties. Kawasaki eliminater, honda magna, Yamaha vmax and the Suzuki madura were in a new class of motorcycle called a muscle bike. All of the major manufacturers already had cruisers. The difference was muscle bikes were marketed as production drag bikes. Even the first article in cycle world stated that the new Yamaha vmax was a muscle bike. A virago is a cruiser and a vmax is a muscle bike just as a Cadillac is a luxury car vs a 462 hemi is a muscle car.
Love to see you guys tune the new Triumph Rocket 3R, it has Rev limiters, throttle restrictors and is even leaner for EuroV cool. Dynos here been reporting over 180rwhp with tunes 😎 but like to see what you guys think… amazing how they restrict down these huge muscle cruisers. Love the vmax, ride a rocket 🚀 hello from 🏴
My Rocket 3 got 148 mph after a local flash at 5000 ' altitude.
That's about a 5 Mph handicap less than running lower altitude in the local desert, but it's too hot right now. I just added a 2017 V Max to the stable after seeing this video. Will get the Moore flash, probably next week.
@@rudedog3529 just sold my 3R and now building an OG 85 Vmax 😎
@@78Outlaw What year was the Rocket ? I had a 1985 V Max when they first came out. Ran 11:20 in the quarter at higher altitude. Correction factor would be about .25 sec and I weighed about 50 Lbs more than Gleason.
Thanks Woolich Racing !😁 About ETV, same problem on R6 2019 but strangly, Europe and US map are different !
Hope to see an FZ1 get flashed soon🤘🏻
Those VMax's are friggen awesome! Love V4's (wouldn't want to work on one) but they sound amazing!! Crazy power gains, you just uncorked a friggen monster that bike is going to feel foreign to the owner. Might even scare him/her a bit.
The vmax is very easy to work on. For as much as Yamaha crammed together, they definitely thought about their mechanics while doing it.
Finally you did a VMAX!
4 into 1 V MAX. They sound totally bad ass.
Literally sound like a pro stock v8.
I bought a brand-new Yamaha V-Max in 1987 from Kenny Roberts Yamaha in Modest Calif. I put around 35 thousand hard miles on it and it never let me down it was a great motorcycle sold in around 1995.
I have an 09 highly modified. Makes unreal power. Rarely do I get challenged. Very fun, but a dangerous bike in the wrong hands. Hence, the massive de-tuning of later models. Mine was 197hp out of the box and ran 10.30's. It's significantly better than that after major work. Great work there. Love the videos!!
Got a 2015 and even though I am located next to the German Autobahn never felt like missing power or speed.
But nice to know that I keep boring that engine even for the 20 or 30 seconds or so per year that I full throttle it.
Knowing what that bike feels stock I assume traction control would be advised with the plus of performance your flashed ECU brings
Amazing!!! Love your vids and how transparent you are! Also, you’ve mentioned a bunch of times to send the ecu in. Back same day only cost $200 bucks but the price is higher in the website. Am I missing something? I want to send my ecu.
Jewmanji
Been saying for many years if I get a cruiser it will be a vmax... and this video solidified my thoughts
My buddy has the last model year vmax. We plan to bring it and my 2006 gixxer 1000 in a couple months
I'm hopeful the Gen 3 busa flash will have similar results when you guys figure it out.....can't wait
Ok so let me get this straight. Mafia with mo Powa. Gotcha. Great vid fam. Love Dat VMax
Do miss my 2015 vmax. Not sure how gps matches with your dyno but mine would do 170 on gps around the same hp and fpt
That beefy torque 💪🏼
I never tested the new V-Max but as a 20 year old kid back in 1988 I bought a 1986 V-max. And boy it was a thrill! Never got tired of it and I kept it for nine years, then it got stolen unfortunately.
Now I'm into Harleys but I'm really tempted getting a new V-Max, seems like an awesome bike!
I just checked your site. I see you do Kawais. I'll be in touch. This Great 👍
We all want one of these... In our dream garage.
I have a 2009 and no idea if it’s been tuned or not. Was originally purchased by Vance and Hines to develop the CS-1 exhaust system so they did a transformer theme build on it and no idea if the got rid of these restrictions.
Is the ecu restricted in the other gears too or only 5th. I have a 2015 vmax and don’t feel the gas being cut off shifting through the gears. Im not one to go over 140mph but 0-120 is fun. So just curious if 1-3 gear is being restricted and would benefit from a ecu flash.
I had mine flashed by Tim Nash in Fla. Now I need to add a PC5 and get it dialed in. Great video, I would love to see you squeeze out as much as you can on one of these :)
Just out of curiosity, why would you need a pc5 if you’ve had it flashed?
Any restrictions, fuel and ignition maps should be dialled in with the ecu flash, unless you’ve since changed something?
The ECU flash is still a “canned” general set of parameters based on specific intake and exaust mods along with many factory presets being reset. The PC5 (6 now) is for tweaking an individual bike for the last few % of power.
@@blakebiggs1065 absolutely 👍
Would you be disabling the case air recirculating system to insure air / fuel / octane stability?
I’ve been wondering what would happen if you flashed one of these.
I had no idea those things were so beastly.
had a gen1 vmax. vboost is such a nice thing to have, smiles everytime past 6k rpm
Thnks for explaining about cylinders
Have you guys messed with the Yamaha Roadstar Warrior 1700?
Been thinking about an Ivans... what's your thoughts? Not trying to compare you to anyone... for me, it's all about the motorcycle performance.
Nice....do u fully unlocked all restrictions...? Including the stacks?
Great vids. With an unrestricted ECU flash from you and keeping my 2014 VMAX exhaust stock and no fuel or ignition tuning work done, will there still be significant HP & torque gains? What gains would be made. Thanks.
10 hp max
I just got a 2020 Vmax. I had 2 previous 1st generations. This thing is badass. Definitely getting it flashed with air box mod. I can’t even imagine what’s it’s gonna feel like 👍.
What flash are you going with. Moore's or Guru? Want to get mine flashed as well.
Haven’t decided yet. You can’t go wrong with either one. I’m still researching what exhaust I want. May just do the cat delete. I like the look of the stock exhaust.
@mckzx9 Have you looked into the DAM Exhaust? After a lot of research that's what I went with. It's similar to the stock exhaust but instead of one can on each side with two ports it's two full pipes coming out on each side. Looks like something from maybe a Mad Max or Batman movie
@@JasonMaxwellsRcHobbies yes that’s the one I’m leaning towards. This one looks almost like the original. And I like the sound too. I was just watching a video on it lol
I have a question if I was to acquire a Ducati Panigale V4 are you able to tune it for more hp tq etc. what would help? Full exhaust or will it be fine with just a muffler upgrade. 👍
I had my '09 VMAX flashed by Moore Mafia. I chose the expedited service and it came back faster than it shipped to them. Much appreciated! 1st and foremost, the bike runs MUCH cooler. I rarely see the gauge read over half. The fans rarely come on even though they set them to come on at 195. Before the flash, it only took a minute or two and the gauge was at 3/4. My guess is the factory tune was super lean at idle. I had them tune for the Delkavic 14" cans with the cat delete. The powerband is very smooth from the bottom of the rpm range to the top. My butt dyno is fairly precise, but I don't feel an appreciable difference in power. I believe it has to do with the smoothness of power delivery. There's no longer a surge in power. What is most notable is that before the tune the bike would fall flat at 142 mph. I had it click over 160 mph indicated with no issue before I shut her down. I feel like it would top out 5th gear and bounce off the limiter no problem. The bike idles a tad higher which I don't really care for but he must have a reason for this. My on off throttle transitions are much smoother and it's easier to modulate. I wish he could tune the shaft drive off this bike. ;-) One day, I'll ship my bike down to Tucker, SC and have it dyno tuned. I want every last bit!!!
Any thoughts on the Cobra Fi2000r settings for a 2012 Yamaha Stryker with Cobra 2 into 1 slip on and Cobra Powerflo intake. Just got mine and factory says 2.5 5 and 3. Doesnt seem right to me.
That’s huge! Wow awesome bike!
Wonder how much power is lost to the gear drive? Pump gas? Sounds perfect, not too loud. This guy isn't going to lose many street races.
I have a 2014 Vmax bone stock, what will need to be done if I remove the converter, is a tune needed. Please respond, thanks
Hope you enjoy Tim Nash and the flash that you are using. Thanks to him you are able to dyno the gen 2 vmax. Problem is he got more out of it than you did and top speed was 171. Keep trying you are still behind the Nash flash
How does your time compare to Guru tune? Do you take in account for higher elevations? Im 5280 feet above sea level.
I have a 2012 goldwing wonder if it would be worth dialing it in
does this improve basic fuel economy if you ride around gentle and light on the throttle?
That is crazy. I love my Roadliner but I'm feeling a desire to buy a Vmax too.
180hp!! Wow.
120lbs of torque might be more impressive…riding one of these is now on my bucket list.
Awesome thumbnail so I brought all these thumbs ups 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🚀
beautiful bike
More than enough for a cruiser, well done
That's a huge gain. Would it make sense to flash the ECU on older bikes, like the K3 1000?
I do a lot of them. They have ignition timing restrictions.
All the details to send it in are here.
Www.MooreMafia.com/ecu-flashing-service
Did the owner do the Airbox mod ? I saw it had a K&N but there is a huge restrictor plate in the airbox that should be removed. It necks down the airbox 2/3 the size it should be. Huge difference when removed ! Even on a stock bike.
hey moore have you guys done this with a stryker?
Dang, pretty impressive gains! Tell the owner to ride it like they stole it!
The bike sounds good!
Do you have a comparison of the "Nash Flash" vs. Moore Mafia ECU? 180HP is impressive.
Wow that’s awesome
My 85 Max has 12K original miles. I am the second owner and it has a production number of 2131. It looks new it rides new and I love it and will never sell it. It is in my bike collection forever I have 15 motorcycles
Can you tune a yamaha bolt? Is that an ecu that can be mailed? I have a channel as well with bike content.
That thing sounds amazing.
At what rpm does it stop giving full 100 percent? B could Yamaha be doing this at the high rpm for reliability???? I’m considering doing mime.
With that up in fifth Gear at 8500, the bike begs for a six speed 👍
Why does the power drop on the graph like a steady line then bump back up . Just wo during
💥 Chris ✅ You Got It Together💥
Not sure which is more fun for cruising....tuned Vmax or H2 SE SX. Need to go back and look at the torque numbers or the tune H2 SE SX before I chose.
Have both and I'm thinking the Kaw H2 SX SE ...... FTW.
The Kaw , more power, less weight, and better gas mileage.
I have a 2019 africa twin adventure sports dct can you do my ecu and will I have to do anything else to the bike
If I'm on the opposite side of the Earth from you guys, can I purchase your tune as a program and upload it on my V-Max's ECU with the help of my local technicians?
This is exciting!
Do they make a better fuel economy map too so you can get to the gas station? I'd have owned one if it had some range. VMAX is awesome.
All this bike needed was an 6th overdrive gear and a low fuel consumption map for when you ain't being a total goon and caveman with the go grip.
It's gets 90 Miles on a tank. How many places in the US are 90 miles from a gas station. Not many
@@Jason-sz5zv you’d be surprised. I rode from Texas to Missouri last year. Plenty of stretches without gas stations that were very sketchy. Same with going from Texas to Colorado. Three weeks ago I rode from Texas to Georgia then Georgia to Florida then back to Texas. Again lots of long stretches without gas stations depending on which route you take. 90 miles to a tank sucks. I had a vtx 1800 that would roughly get 100 ish miles to a tank. It’s nerve racking going on a lengthy trip with such a short span. Plus gets super expensive with today’s gas prices. The Florida trip I did on my current m109r. $200 one way on gas. Would be even worse on a vmax.
90 miles is extremely annoying on trips here in the UK on motorways, I had xv535 which got about that and I rode 240 miles mostly motorway in one day, most petrol stations were 40 or 50 miles apart so missing one meant the next one was right on the limit and one time I had to ride behind a lorry in his slipstream to make it, so I was filling up every 40 miles or so, often the stations were a fair bit of a detour to get to ...
On smaller roads it was not so bad but still always had range anxiety.
90 miles ? My 1st vmax only got 60-70miles with how I rode it lol
Range anxiety is very real on the Gen2 Vmax. Because that’s a heavy MF to be pushing on flat so any hill you can forget it.
They’re still gonna do Mail In ECUs regardless the bike? Was gonna go back to a Kawasaki ZX14, doesn’t have throttle by wire
I have been waiting for a vmax video need to do a new triumph rocket 3
Not sure of the ECU status on those. Even just a couple year old Triumph bikes I was only able to locate one service online that has the software for those.
Yeah that's what I'm hearing I just bought a 2020 fory cruiser bike and it could be so much more with a little adjustment
Do you guys do Kawais, Z900rs? My bike is factory tuned which is OK, but I know like this VMax there's way more potential in my engine.
We do. Check out the website www.MooreMafia.com for more details!
Good vid boss
Could you flash a 2021 Yamaha grizzly 700 or would it be a waste 🤔 and if you unlocked the ecm would it have to be on a dyno to get full benefits?
You can usually tell them your mods and get a little bit different tune, if needed.
Dyno tune probably won't help unless your tuner can / will adjust the 'cracked' ECU: Most dyno guys know how to map a power commander.
There may not be enough demand for a Grizzly? Of course, Yam may have used that ECU in some motorcycles.
Of course, you should probably call MM...
That last pull sounding fucking amazing.
What levers are those? Please tell me he's running Hindle with ebay levers.
That thing is awesome
whats the horsepower at the crank before and after the tune
I have a vmax gen 2 2012 I would like to flash ECU and leave free the beast , where are you located? Thanks
Www.MooreMafia.com
Have you guys ever gotten the ability to tune the ECU on a 2010 S1000RR?
Nice! that thing makes as much tq as my 14R
Wow....You must really love your videos. An advertisement every frikin 10 seconds.
With the gains this V-Max recieved after the dyno tune. I wonder how well it would do against a Triumph Rocket 3?
It beats it in stock form alone!
Wastes the rocket with eez
I own a 2022 black edition rocket 3r and a 2011 VMAX. VMAX crazy acceleration off the start but while riding, the new Rocket 3r delivers a smoother acceleration. I love them both, I'm getting my VMAX flashed soon but cant wait til they unleash the Rocket 3r.
Had no idea my next bike was going to be a vmaxx
Super good bike for street riding you won't be disappointed
Lmao same. Now I'm very interested
Do you guys ECU flash Yamaha warrior xv1700?
It's so sad that Yamaha has stopped producing this model or this type of bike
Update: Just wanted to mention that my 2017 did NOT display any fixit / eng code
on the instrument display after the ECU flash.
Can this tuning be done on gen1 vmax?
So why does Yamaha limit throttle below 5000rpm from factory?
My bike! Man would I love to see you take this thing down the track. Holy shit. And I can't imagine the torque difference. It already power wheelies like an animal with the shitty factory tune. And now it has how much more torque? Lolol.
Chris have you ever ridden one? I know your'e not a Yammy guy but still....it's such a fan bike to ride.
I second the motion. Would love to see what Chris could do with a stock Gen 2 at the drag strip. Best I’ve ever seen a stock one do is 9.90s I bet Chris could get 9.70s!
@@MetalDetectingNWGA 100% agree. I've seen an 87 out of a stock one before Chris Moore wasn't riding...lol.
Can this be done on the new KTM super adventure s 🤔 would love it
I have the SDGT and have the same thoughts....
