The Yamaha VMAX is not a new motorcycle… but Yamaha has upped the cool factor a bit on the bike. The 2009 Yamaha VMAX now has a new 65-degree 1679CC V4 motor, an aluminum frame, a 5-speed transmission with slipper clutch (oooh!), adjustable front and rear suspension (ahhh!), and beefy Brembo brakes. The new exhaust and color scheme help a bit too… looks much better than the previous years. Yours for $18,000.
Hah, I still take my Harley over this. It gets me to work, helps me get over my midlife crisis and gets me underaged chicks!
