    My first Vmax (1999 with random mods)

    Rode by another random Vmax for the 1st time

    Today as I was arriving to Orlando, I had to stop for gas. As I got back on I-4, a bike went passed me that looked somehow familiar. I sped up to catch it and sure enough, it was a V-max!! Nice black and red one, and the guy looked like he was on the long haul - big rucksack on the back...
