Yamaha V-MAX 2009

Yamaha V-MAX 2009

The big Vmax from Yamaha is a unique bike. This applies to the technical side, with the largest V4 engine in a bike of all time, as well as to the emotional side of riding a Vmax. Few bikes can offer such brute grunt in every riding situation, and even fewer of them are cruisers. Although its stubborn turning behaviour detracts from the riding pleasure, the seating position is quite cramped and the sound could be more indicative of the massive displacement, the propulsion is addictive. The Vmax 1700 is definitely a niche product, but also an absolutely awe-inspiring, unique bike.

Very powerful V4 engine, with an insane amount of torque in every situation

Well-damped suspension

Beautiful workmanship

Very potent brakes

High fuel consumption

seating position rather cramped with a wide leg spread

extremely stubborn steering behaviour of the used test machine

suspension cannot fully suppress movements when leaning

sound of the powerful V4 could be more perceptible
