anyone have any idea what class does the latest yamaha vmax falls under? i do not mean class 2b, 2a or 2 but cruiser, sport touring or touring or others.

 

i see the bike on the website, wa, salivate leh... 1679cc v4 engine with 200PS. although it'll be another 1 year plus or more before i get my class 2 licence. wondering how much will it cost... should be cheaper than a duke monster or the streetfighter?

ride conservatively , can expect around 12km/litre on a city riding road condition. :angel:

 

Down side is, the tank is even smaller than a super 4! 15L! :dot:

wa, drink petrol so shiong ah? 12km/litre is gonna to be a pinch on the wallet especially in this kind of the stop go traffic of singapore...if finance permits, im gonna seriously consider making the vmax my weekend bike or long distance riding bike. full throttling the vmax on the NSHW is sure gonna be an adrenaline experience. from the video i saw. the riding position is quite similar to phantom. and i kinda like the very relax riding position.

 

but why you say 4krpm on gear 1 tio summon liao? over the local speed limit?

full throttle ?

Its not going to be an adrenaline experience.

You'll probably give up due to the enormous wind blast before 7k rpm on its final drive.

There is no rather this or that, subjected to each individual preference and budget.

Its an endless argument anyway.

lol and I was discussing vmax with thenation at lunch... I didn't know that you are interested in it... well... the older vmax might be more suitable... no one need 200 horsepower in singapore... not even malaysia I think... :cheeky:

:lol:

 

rider must be in some lycra racing protection suit with neck brace, capped wif some special designed aero dynamics enhanced helmet, special gloves & boots entailed.

tuck really really really tight against the bike, all the while throttling to the max!

 

:lol:

 

:cheeky:

 

on a serious note, dun tink anyone would be tryin to clear the meter(locally i mean) on this beast.

well, mayb for a track junkie, or a stunt-inclined-crazy-trying-to-be-famous rider... :lol:

 

on a side note, it would be interesting if can put the new V-max side by side against the new Rocket III... :angel:

seriously... VMAX CMI on NSHW.. nor cameron or fraser corners ..

 

bike is so fast... but no windshield.. no fairing... how to maintain 200kmh all the way..

 

power deliver is so rush and so powerful.. not able to take corners unless rider is really skillful..

 

but it'll be good for FNO.. or short trips.. or cruising down orchard road..
