YAMAHA V-MAX

Year: 2007

Mileage: 14,885

The Yamaha V-Max was first unleashed in 1985, released solely to Yamaha’s US market as an exercise in excessive power, aggressive looks and neck-jarring performance. For many, it was, and remains, the epitome of the muscle bike, with Yamaha producing two generations, before ceasing its production for UK markets in 2016. Powered by an 1197cc shaft-drive V4 engine producing 145bhp, the first V-Max bikes to arrive in the UK were unofficial imports. This then changed in 1991, when Yamaha officially imported the bike in a 90bhp, restricted format. It wasn't until 1996 that the UK could enjoy an official full-power version. Production of the original V-Max ended in 2003, with Yamaha’s line-up remaining devoid of the power cruiser until 2009, after a prototype version appeared at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show. Following the original’s max-power ethos, the 2009 machine hiked the capacity to 1679cc and claimed power to a monstrous 197bhp. version.
