a few loose screws. 97 vmax 500

[SLOPES]

i have a 97 vmax 500. last weekend went out to haliburton forest for my first ride. sled ran mint for a few hours, then it was bogging and had no power. I thought i had picked up some bad gas but thanx to another yamaha rider out on the trail he brought me to his cabin in the park to have a deeper look. I turned out to be the screw that holds the throttle bar came loose and wasn't lifting the throttle plate in one of the carbs. easy fix once you found the problem.

Thanks again jeff. If you read this drop a line.

there should be more sledders out there like you.
