No, I didn't know the slick wasn't a bolt-on deal- thanks for letting me know. I see from Yankee's post that there is some swingarm modification needed to fit that big tire. Do you have another good swingarm I could use for modification that we could maybe trade for the new tire I have? If...

Wow! Good thread- thanks Shawn and Lankey. I'm also in the market for a good slick and I have a spare 2005 wheel (new take-off) to mount it on. I was looking at the Phoenix 6.0" x 26.0" x 15.0" slick, but I didn't want to thicken the gear ratio by adding another inch of tire diameter...

I don't know if I would go as far to say as it being "all over" for the Gen 2 VMAX if those other guys have bikes that are faster, more powerful or whatever. The reason being is that none of those other bikes has the huge cult following all over the Globe as the Yamaha VMAX, nor have those other...

Just flat awesome!!!! Good job!!!!! :punk: - john

RJ & Heretic- Both replies very well said. ;) I look forward to seeing some magazine and independant testing of the machine in the upcoming months. :) - john

Again, very well stated RJ and might I add this that ties into what you said~ In my current business, there is a *LOT* of competition in the marketplace and also a lot of product design "pirating" between companies. Heck, 4 of my own product designs that I entirely engineered here from scratch...

Awesome to see the VMax at the track as it was meant to be. :) - john

Same to you fastmax and congrat's our your engagement too! :clapping: - john

No, you have missed my point, but no worries- it's all good. I made the Wal-Mart comment, because those folks who can't afford the bike here for whatever reason, decide to "validate" their negative statements about this bike (or anything else for that matter) by bashing the thing to oblivian...

Well said. :)

You can kiss my ass moron and for your un-informed and stupid mentality's information- I'm a full grown adult of 36 years that has earned everything I have today, where *NOTHING* was given to me ever in my life! I built my successful engine building business from nothing 7 years ago, with my own...

I think it's an excellent motorcycle technologically speaking and while I was sick of waiting forever for Yamaha to give us something for years, I'm glad I waited and it was worth it to me. I'll have one and I'll keep my '95 too. BTW- I won't give my opinion on all the nay-sayer, cry-baby...

I've had a deposit placed on this machine at our local dealer for nearly two years now (even before they even really wanted to take it) and 24 hours after the first news spread across the internet of the new bike's release, they called the shop.... We've done some business with them over the...

Very well stated RJ. ;) - john

Well stated.

Congrat's Buster!! :clapping: - john

I don't see this bike in a simplistic view of how much "power" or "torque" it has only, but rather how much technology has been engineered into it over what we're riding now. Pretty much everything that bike has equipped as stock is what we've all been "modding" to achieve for the last 20+...

OMG...I think I just messed myself!! :worthy: I'm looking at the shear technology of the thing that *really* impresses me most of all. Hmmmmm, maybe I'll have to have one this year after-all! I can't stand this, that's an awesome bike...period! Well done Yamaha!! Calling my dealer for more...

Well, the Obaminator finally secured the Democratic Presidential nomination last night, pissing Hillary off to where she still won't concede, even though she's clearly lost... They can't even get along with themselves within their own party, let alone move this wounded Country along to future...
