Bike Buzz: Yamaha Launches Legendary V-Max

There has never been anything to beat the VMAX since 1985…until now…by Yamaha V-max 2009.

Yamaha V-Max Official Release

The rebirth of a legend , a mega-muscle bike with drag-strip acceleration for the biggest adrenaline kick on the street. The need for speed has been high on the list of cruiser buyers, resulting in the creation of some beautiful and seriously grunty machine. The iconic Yamaha VMAX has always been regarded world wide as a two-wheel equivalent of the big American V8 cars.

The mad acceleration rush and the deep growl of the V4 motor together offered crazy levels of thrill and excitement to the adrenaline junkies of the world. The V-max was fast and violent. The bike had Hooliganism stamped on it from front to rear.

The first generation V-Max unveiled in 1985 remained largely unchanged for next twenty years albeit with minor upgrades like better brakes and improved suspension components to aid its infamous handling characteristics. The second generation model, known as Yamaha VMAX, was showcased in June, 2008 with an all-new 1,679cc V4 engine and lightweight diamond shaped aluminium chassis. The new 2009 VMAX successfully carried forward the design philosophy of its predecessor but with a more mental powerplant and equally competent cycle parts to give the new bike respectable handling and dynamic ability.
