Yamaha V Max description

Yamaha said it best; The V is for Velocity. 

1198cc, DOHC, Liquid-cooled, V-Boost Equipped, 16-valve, V-4 beast, multi-time winner of the best muscle bike award. 

20th Anniversary edition includes ghost-flamed Shift Red paint scheme, blacked-out rimes with red pinstripes.  

This V-Max is very well maintained. Newer tires with 4mm tread on the front, 6mm tread on the rear. Brake pads are new with barely any wear. Rotors and braking system are in great shape. The bike has not been modified from stock (rare for a V-Max of it's vintage). Only the tasteful Yamaha windshield (no longer available) and a friction lock cruise control have been added. Oil and coolant are fresh. Exhaust and carburetor jetting are stock and properly synchronized, runs very smooth. Clutch is in good shape, does not slip. Checked over by certified Yamaha mechanic, 20+ years experience working on VMax. Shaft oil is clean, no issues with engagement of drive shaft. The bike is unmolested and ready to ride. 

The only issues of note is the flaking of the clear on the scoops and valve cover(a relatively common issue to the bike.) Pictures included to show. The odometer on the bike is inaccurate, having been replaced at 8978 miles. The former owner said that the odometer stopped showing speed accurately (by 15-20mph) so he replaced it. We have possession of the original odometer and it will go with the bike. 

Title is clear Illinois. 

Shipping can be arranged to anywhere, feel free to call for a quote. We're happy to work with your shipping provider to makes sure the bike gets to you safely. 

The bike is at a Yamaha Dealership, 44 years Yamaha experience. It is for sale locally, auction can end without notice. Test rides are available. Illinois buyers and some states that have reciprocal tax will pay sales tax at finalization of purchase. Call to find out more. All sales subject to a $58.00 documentation fee.

Fri, 03 May 2013

One of our favorite stories from 2012 was our coverage of the Kenny Roberts American Heroes Benefit Dinner. Hosted by King Kenny at his storied California ranch, it was an incredible opportunity to get close to the three-time world champ and other racing glitterati like Kenny Roberts Jr., Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson and renowned dirt-tracker Mert Lawwill. If those names resonate with you, it’s worth reading our story that includes a video and coverage of the Cpl.

Small-Displacement Class Considered for 2015 AMA Pro Racing Season

Wed, 04 Dec 2013

More and more manufacturers are entering the small-displacement sportbike market and AMA Pro Racing has taken notice, opening the possibility of adding a new racing class representing the growing segment. With plans to consolidate the Daytona Sportbike and Supersport classes and the Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson series signed through 2015, a spot will open up on race weekends for another racing class to support the premier Superbike Championship. The logical choice is to introduce a new small-displacement class.

Rumor: Yamaha Developing Inline Three Roadster

Wed, 25 Jan 2012

French motorcycle outlet Moto Revue reports Yamaha is developing a new three-cylinder middleweight. Citing an internal Yamaha document, Moto Revue reports the new naked model will feature an inline Triple engine, aluminum perimeter frame, upside-down fork and a triple-pipe exhaust like the MV Agusta F3 and Brutale 675. Yamaha has produced a Triple before, offering the XS750 from 1976-1979 before replacing it with the XS850 in 1980 and 1981 (pictured above is the 1981 Yamaha XS850.) The potential new model is still likely to be years away, so its look is yet to be determined, though Moto Revue does have a rendering that borrows some of the design elements from the FZ8.
