Hello fellow Yammi experts...
It's my first post, but I've read through some pages in this forum and have amassed some critical questions about the sled I'm looking at tonight. I would really appreciate some timely responses... (my sincerest thanks in advance!!!)
1999 V-MAX SX600 Triple - single pipe - red heads (+ 2-up seat.... yes, on a SX chassis!).
~2180 original miles (no rebuilds)
Good overall condition (however, I'll let you be the judge of that!)
~US$1400
Here are some pics
QUESTIONS:
1. Regarding the W-link (upon harsh bottom-outs): What crack's am I looking for? Where do I look?
2. I've read that the wiring harness which runs under the motor can fray - where do I look for it?
3. Am I looking for about 125psi compression? (How much should the cold vs. hot readings differ?)
4. It has a 2-up seat (with heated rear grips) - however, it's an SX chassis - can the rear suspension handle it? (my girlfriend weighs ~130lbs)
5. I understand it's rating at ~95hp (single pipe, non power valve motor) - however, is it a reliable mill?
6. Since there were crank issues in the 1998 Yammi's (and on some 1999 models) - is there any way to check besides calling a dealer and checking the VIN?
......let me know if I missed anything.
Thank you very much, in advance,
