I noticed in the B-King vs VMax article your magazine didn't have any custom painted Vmax to show like you did the B-King from some German StreetFighter Shop.

Here's the answer to that one, I'll circle the sky overhead and wait for the German Fighter groups B-King....hehehehe LOL!  

It's built to run....240 wide tire kit, no intake restrictor plate, X-Pipe installed, Top speed governor eliminated...sky's the limit now. Pushing more horsepower than stock.

Nice! Too bad you didn't have it done a year ago when we put that article together, or we might have found some room for it in the magazine.

Got any dyno numbers to share? Or unrestricted top-speed data? We haven't had a chance to play with one yet, and I'm curious how responsive that big beast is to some simple tweaks.

Thanks for posting a reply Aaron,

I have seen the dyno numbers at www.StarVmax.com that are listing the mods I have and they generally run 188hp at the wheel, and about 210hp at the crank. It handles the road beautifully. It's a handful when you twist the grip. I have just installed the governor eliminator so I have run it up to 152mph and then ran out of road, however there is plenty more power to push it 170mph.

The bike IS A BEAST.....extremely addictive.

Sweet,
It looks more like a Vmax now. Where's the machine gun mounts?
