How Much For $500?

Dear Ralph,
I have a stock 1994 Yamaha V-Max 600 and about $500-$600 dollars to spend. What do you recommend for the best performance gains for this kind of money?

You need to define “performance” before we can make recommendations. Do
you want 1000 ft acceleration, powder climbing, average trail riding,
lake top speed?? The best way to spend your cash depends on your application. Personally, I’d go with carb boring, clutching, and gearing – all which can be done for about $500-$600.
