This makes it an oddfire engine since combustion is not always after the same number of degrees. The picture below shows the ignition pattern for this engine: -![vmax.png](/img/decoders/vmax.png){.align-center} +![Yamaha VMax trigger pattern](/img/decoders/vmax.png){.align-center} As can be seen, combustion occurs after 180, 250, 180 and 110 degrees. The early Yamaha Vmax bikes (from -85 to -89) used four pick-ups and a TCI controller, this trigger will not work for the old Vmaxes, perhaps these can use the basic distributor and run off the ignition pulse. From 1990, the Yamaha Vmax uses a digital ignition which has one pick-up and uses the pattern as shown below: -![vmax2.png](/img/decoders/vmax2.png){.align-center} +![VMax tooth numbers](/img/decoders/vmax2.png){.align-center} The flywheel runs counter-clockwise and the beginning of lobe 6 (it's left side) is TDC of cylinder 1.

Therefore, it requires 10K resistors on the VR+ and VR- line (before getting to the VR-conditioner), and the R10 on the VR-conditioner to be equipped with a 220nf ceramic capacitor to filter the generator noise. ### Tuner Studio Configuration -![vmax3.png](/img/decoders/vmax3.png){.align-center} +![VMax configuration in TunerStudio](/img/decoders/vmax3.png){.align-center} **Fields:**
