Jeez, the new Gixxer 1k being plastered all over the 'net today is reportedly 191 up.

Seems like all the liter bikes coming out have crazy horsepower numbers.

They should. Keep up with the times. Who wants to buy a 90HP motorcycle when you can get a great bike with 200HP?

That is one sweet bike! If my early retirement fund ever hits.........:biglaugh:

same motor builders that power that bike are making motors for the new buells now

I have owned a 05 VMAX and another 49 motorcycles over my 44 years of riding. I am hoping for one of the old farts buying the 2nd Gen VMAX to get scared sh!tless after they have had there MAX a short while. Maybe they will put it up for sale for a couple thousand off retail and I will get a deal. May I ain't scared me! LOL

I think A LOT of guys are hoping the same thing. Seller is probably going to get his asking price for it no problem.

This economy is taking a giant dump right in the middle of the VMax launch. I wonder how many $1k deposits will get forfeited?

Sad thought but certainly possible. Might see some stealers listing '09's just to get rid of them. Hmmm.

 

[2stangs69-91]

I sure hope so....I will be there to pick up the slack. :biglaugh: as long as they drop the price a little.

It is most unlikely they will drop the MSRP.

For incentive, Yamaha might give more bike for the same money, like more ponies than the 200.

There are some at other Vmax forum that thinks Yamaha and the release of the Vmax is not at all affected by the economy..lol

Yeah but the Buell isnt as fast as the VMAX cause it doesnt have V-Boost

 

[Jayhawk]

Come on Yankee, all you gotta do is put Sea Foam in it. It'll go.

I bet when Mr. Yamasukiaki comes from from Yamaha to tune the 09 VMAX for the test mag he will have 2 things in his tool bag..

1) Seafoam
2) Wasabi

Ohh and by the way last time when Mr Yamahasukiiaki weighed in , he tipped the scale at 94 lbs.

Wonder what his 1/4 mile time would be.

 

[vmax190]

is that what it's all about 1/4 mile times, how about pure grunt hp out of a 180 twiste, thats why i love this !@#$%^ bikeunk:

 

[fastmax1]

I only mention Mr. "Yamahasukiiaki" and his 1/4 mile time due to his 94 lb weight, LOL. He probably wouldn't have enough strength in his arms to hold on! :biglaugh:
