Yamaha Will Produce New V-Max; Open To Feedback From Potential Buyers

Apparently the new generation Yamaha V-Max, first shown as a concept bike at last year’s Tokyo motor show, is now headed for production. Yamaha has opened a website, www.next-vmax.com, which contains a photo gallery of the concept bike, as well as a section where you can give Yamaha your feedback on the bike.

The most interesting question the site poses is probably “How much horsepower do you expect from the next V-Max model?” – the choices range from 140hp all the way to 210hp! There is also a question concerning the advanced features you’d like – options include traction control and ABS.

This is good news for V-Max enthusiasts (or should we say ‘members of the cult of V-Max’?) who are eagerly awaiting the new bike.
