Just bought 94 V-Max 750

Picked this up for an increadible price, runs great! This thing is ungodly fast! wow, never knew these V-max's were this fast. The guy I bought it from swears he hasn't been beat yet, and he even beat a 2005 Arctic Cat F6. Just wanted to say hi as I am new, and if anybody can tell me anything about this older Model V-Max I would appreciate it. Thanks!

They are fast! But they eat gas, and have no suspension like the newer sleds do now. I was going to pick up a 97 V Max 800, but decided against it because of the suspension. I have a 94 V Max, and it beats my back up. Good luck with it. They have been known to be dependable.

No idea

No clue. I don't think its even got an ODO. Don't matter she is so damn quick. Its old, but its one of the quickest sleds I have ever been on.

Agree. A M-10 will do wonders!

cost?

Whats something like that cost? Is it hard to put on the sled? Forgive the newbie questions, the sled doesn't turn worth a crap on pavement, could the carbide's be worn?

i think the carbides have somthing to do with it but i'm not entirly sure, both my sled have new carbides, the doo turns well on pavment, you have to manhandle the cat to get it to do anything.

Thanks

Thanks for the info.. I will definately check out the post. I also hear different sleds are better than others. Would swapping the ski's, front suspension help? I am thinking it would, but on an older sled, don't want to put too much money into it.
