Nothing at all wrong with it.
But the cruiser just doesn't do anything for me yet.
and you would be riding a polaris too.
Thinking about buying a new Yamaha VMAX for the summer

Good Grief, thats right.
NOW I understand why it DOESN'T CALL OUT to me!!!:face-icon-small-hap:face-icon-small-hap:face-icon-small-hap
Back in the hunt one more time.
you might consider living not in a desert if you want to enjoy winter more
insane depth up in the big sky canyon north of IP/WEST. last weekend was some of my deepest days of the year.
winters got a few months left to go around here!
I/m really surprised the Vmax doesn't have a 6 speed
the 5 speed really hinders that bikes capabilities, the motor is awesome but it looks so strange, the exhaust has got to go. it's awfully heavy at 684 lbs.
I doubt you will ever do a wheelie on that thing. not much more exciting than doing a wheelie at 100 plus down the Highway. but my Driving record thanks me for selling my R1. it spooks you when you pass a few cars and look down and you are doing 160. but I really Miss my Dyna Wide glide even though it would top out at 114. my wife loved about 3700 RPM. best $15,000 Vibrator ever. HA HA. Darn it Chris you are making me wish I had the $$ to buy a Motorcycle.

To me, this "calls my name"..
Good choice! I had a 2009 Gen2 VMax for 4 years and 30,000 miles....and at least that many smiles!! When you grab a handful ya better be hanging on tight.....:amen:

Vmax is by far the sexiest bike to hit the pavement. You can keep your Harleys . I had a FZ1 and they are next in line to a vmax in my opinion.
What are you talking about.
I am 51.
Its the PERFECT AGE!!
And the bike is WAY CHEAPER than the Vet!:face-icon-small-hap:face-icon-small-hap
While its been a few years since my last VMAX, I have VERY FOND memories of this bike. And for the life of me I do NOT remember the 5 speed "Hindering" anything about this beast.
You twist the grip on this bad boy and hand on for dear life and it ROCKETS you forward!
Agreed,
The only thing that has to go on the stock bike is the exhaust pipe.
The after market pipes LOOK and SOUND so much better!

Christopher,
Penco in kalispell had a 2011 all black with a bunch of mods (Vance and Hines exhaust?) as of last Thursday. Sales guy said he wanted 15K. Think I recall him saying the guy had put 5-10 in upgrades like exhaust, seat, etc.
Heard him pull in from a ride and that is a big cat that can purr. Very good looking bike! Kind of a lost market for that type of category of bike, but still a unique machine that looks like sooooo much fun to ride.

my birthday was the 30th of may and I picked up a new WR250R. It is a small dual sport, but it is going to be perfect for riding to work and hitting the occasional single track.

Good for you.
I have kept looking for a DEAL on a new VMAX and there are very few good deals to be had..

I'm partial to my 75 Moped with a basket for groceries.

Ahhh
Back in the day.
I remember being about 14 in So. Call, back in say 1976?
Had a 49cc Puch Moped before California changed the laws and made a driver's license required to drive them on the roads.
Those were the days...
