Educate me

[Bob Vehring]

I have a bunch of Yamaha sleds, early V Max, SRV, Enticer, Inviter,433TW. My kid is looking for a V Max 4. Can anyone tell me the differences, what to look for, what to stay away from. We can fix or rebuild whatever we have to but would prefer to start with a solid starter sled. It will be trail driven but most of my other sleds do get ported, pipes, basic performance upgrades etc.
What should I be looking for?

Well its been about 9 months since I started this, Today I went to a swap meet here looking only for a windshield for a 74 TW 433 F. Second trailer I walk by has a very and I mean very clean 94 V max 4 with RPC pipes. I had to scramble to find enough friends there to get together $1100, but its now sitting here. Driving out there in my wifes 94 chevy work truck with a broken tailgate, I also found out just how heavy they are.

Hey Bob, I saw it loaded on the truck...I guess I showed up at the right time. LOL

Plenty help loading, you shoulda been here for the unloading, Me, Wendy, Ryan and the kid next door, front shocks seem to work well.
You realize you now have to race the 83 against Regan for the V Max title, I'll lighten up the 83, start by taking the seat off
