Yamaha V Max description

This motorcycle is in tip-top condition.  You will not find a 2002 VMAX in better condition.  It looks and runs like it just came off the showroom floor.  It is completely stock.      

This motorcycle has always been garage kept, the paint, chrome and trim are excellent, it is mechanically perfect and stock, the seat covering is excellent and it starts and runs like a dream.  It has a new battery and the tires are like new, maybe 95%.  There are absolutely no issues with the carbon fiber.  There is a scratch on the right side of the engine rotor cover which is minor and easily repaired.  The wheels and chrome excellent.  The two intake scoops have minor wear from knees pressing against them.  I'm pointing out a few issues but they are totally minor.    

LEGEND
The Yamaha VMAX never stopped living up to its reputation. Achieving muscle-bike status doesn't come easy and keeping it for over 20 years is even harder.  The original 1198cc V-4 power cruiser has a unique style, stance and look that's all its own. Everything about the first edition VMAX is unique. From the V-boost fuel system (see details below) to the unique easy access under-seat fueling location, the VMAX always draws attention. VMAX boasts bulletproof low-maintenance shaft drive and heavy-duty components throughout. The original VMAX had a run from 1985-2007.

The VMAX is an excellent cruiser but when you need the power, twist the throttle and you're there! Its compact stance allows it to carve through the twisties and its power keeps it cruising at highway speed all day. It's the ultimate "do all" cruiser

ENGINE
• Liquid-cooled, 1198cc, DOHC, 16-valve, 70° V-4 engine has no equal in its class, pumping out tremendous, hard-hitting power to make it the ultimate quick-accelerating, high-performance king. 
• Patented Yamaha "V-Boost" induction, a power-boosting variable intake system which at 6000 RPM and above force feeds massive quantities of fuel into the cylinders via a servo-controlled butterfly valve producing +10% power boost.
• Four 35mm Mikuni down raft carburetors ensure seamless, lightning-quick throttle response. 
• Specially designed high-lift camshafts ensure ample acceleration at lower RPM along with legendary top-end for a broad, deep power band. 
• Specially tempered crankshaft and connecting rods provide excellent durability. 
• Smooth-shifting, five-speed transmission puts that massive power band to the pavement with one purpose: maximum acceleration all the way to redline. 
• Hydraulically activated diaphragm-type clutch delivers precise clutch performance with lighter pull. 
• Low-maintenance shaft drive provides ultra-smooth performance that's virtually lash-free.

CHASSIS/ SUSPENSION
• Low-slung styling keeps the seat low for great handling, confident low-speed maneuvering and V-Max's unique look. 
• Stout, 43mm front fork features 5.5 inches of travel and air-assist adjustability for fine-tuning the ride. 
• Dual rear shocks feature four-position rebound damping and five-way spring-preload adjustability. 
• Fat, 6-inch rear tire mounted on solid disc wheel hooks up with the asphalt for maximum traction. 
• Dual 298mm front discs with four-piston calipers and a single 282mm rear disc brake reels the V-Max in.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES
• Under seat fuel tank helps balance the bike's weight and provides space for the large-capacity air box located above the carburetors. 
• Fuel reserve switch is conveniently positioned on the handlebars. 
• Fork seal guards help prevent rock and debris damage to fork sliders. 
• Massive-looking faux air intake scoops give the V-Max the perfect "street rod" look and feel. 
• Wide, thickly padded seat and plush passenger saddle with grab-rail adds exceptional comfort to the incomparable excitement. 
• Handy center stand for convenience and service accessibility. 
• Compact speedometer unit keeps cockpit clean and simple and offers easy readability of trip meter/odometer and neutral, high beam, turn signal, low oil and low fuel indicator lights.

I reserve the right to end the auction early.  It is for sale locally also.

The 2014 MotoGP Season Is Here! + Video

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

Ladies and gentlemen, the 2014 MotoGP season has officially begun, as bikes have started circulating around the Qatar circuit. This season has been filled with drama as Honda and Yamaha continue to fight for top honors. Meanwhile, Ducati has switched to the new Open rules, Aleix Espargaro has been lightning quick in testing, and what’s with these new Factory 2 rules?

Yamaha Sketches out the Features on the New 2010 YZ450F [Video]

Thu, 10 Sep 2009

You’ll realize how cheesy that headline is after watching the pretty rad video that Yamaha has released. Yamaha’s new motocross bike has taken a radical new approach.  The engine is backwards. Yamaha’s reason for doing this is to shift the heavy end of the motor more to the center of the motorcycle to make it more agile and responsive.  Slanting the cylinder also made for a straighter pathway for the air intake at the front of the bike.

Not the most sensible of commuters..

Wed, 04 Apr 2012

This is the white and gold 2012 Yamaha R1. It's also the bike I shall be commuting on for the next 8 months. The crouched riding position and murderous amounts of power may not be ideally suited for the London grind, but with plenty of track action planned I have to make some compromises. There are three fresh colours to choose from.
