THat's a pretty crude model, but the final product has the potential to be very cool.

Looks pretty good, are they actually changing a few things on that beast?

A link where you can give Yamaha your input. www.next-vmax.com
One of the sections has a "How much will you pay for the V-MAX" questionaire, and the lowest price option is around $14,000 I think!

Silly me, I thought this was about the "Vmax" setting on my Aprilia, that shows the highest speed obtained during a run.

Your Aprilia reminds me of a physics test.

I'd love a VMAX. There is some rediculous rumors about crap like 280HP in the near future. That's interesting to me.

That concept bike and the web site have been around for about three years now. I had an 01' Max and waited and waited for that bike to come out. Im glad it didnt though because I probably would have bought it before I got a chance to ride a sportbike. Then i wouldnt have known what it was like to spend all kinds of crazy money on tires and track days and gear.....Ha!...love it

Was the power comparable? I've seen a few VMax's move out in a hurry, in a straight line anyway. The drag king around here in the 90s was a VMAX.

I saw a guy at Bike Week in Myrtle Beach on what appeared to be an 80s VMAX with his wife on the back straight up drag two custom bikes that had been racing at every light. I took off from the light not racing but fast enough to stay in front of the customs and the VMAX with the chick on the back left me sitting there too.
