Just bought #407, matching frame & engine numbers, 32,000 miles, factory mixture screw brass plugs still in place.

Not currently running but will be soon. unk:

You're on the list post 429. I'm sure you'll have it running soon.

 

[UlsterMax]

Just did a bike swap for my first V-Max #2555. The guy I got it from says it was found in a barn and has been completely restored. It's also an import from Canada. Only a couple of mods, the rear wheel and exhausts. Only about 24,000 miles on her.

+1, and BRC is a great new home for it. I can only think of one other place I'd like to see it. Like Tina says, if it weren't for me you'd live in a garage full of motorcycles & cars. That wouldn't make me a bad person. Right?

Not at all. I'm sure you'd let her come in now and then:eusa_dance:

LOL....nope. About 2 months after the last divorce is when I bought the 07 Vmax, and having a motorcycle is a plus. How I work, I am gone for weeks at a time. The plus of a motorcycle is that while I'm gone, the Vmax is at home, locked up, and I know that no one else is riding it. I couldnt say that about the X-wife.

We've learned that Yamaha begins each model year with the last 4 digits beginning with 0101.
Also, Canadian bikes are numbered independently from those in the USA but also begin with 0101.

[#3VMAXGUY]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I have the oldest. Serial 000103. 1985 Maroon with 9k miles. Up for sale or trade. You name a price.

If I'm correct, this is the 3rd ever Vmax made.

 

[dannymax]

Think it's the 3rd Vax to enter the US, the first 100 went elsewhere.

I just sent you a PM about this bike.

 

[#3VMAXGUY]

That works too.. I heard that no matter what, the serial starts at 101 though, so what would be the foreign ones?

I don't know, maybe they kept the first 100 for presentation bikes or something....:confused2:

 

[twistedmax]

Have any intrest in a gen II trade?

 

[NorwegianMAX]

My 85 has VIN JYA1GR00 2 FA000410. I think the "1GR" means its Canadian.
Now it is imported to Norway. Just finished the restoration yesterday. All stock.
