Yamaha V Max description

2004 Yamaha V Max, ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH - The Mr. Olympia of power cruisers. A 1200cc, liquid-cooled V-4 beast that's won more Best Musclebike awards than it knows what to do with. The truth of the matter is that, for over 19 years now, Mad Max has been wiping the boulevard with pretty much every musclebike-come-lately in terms of pure, unadulterated acceleration. But then, what else would you expect from a machine with high-lift cams and a quartet of massive downdraft carbs stoking its ravenous V-4 powerplant. And that's just for starters - things really get fun once the tachometer sweeps past 6000 rpm and a little thing called V-Boost induction kicks in, force-feeding the engine, via a servo-controlled butterfly valve, huge mouthfuls of unleaded. There is a civilized side to the brute, however, with its vibration-quelling counterbalancer, smooth, hydraulically activated clutch, adjustable front and rear suspension, triple disc brakes, and carbon-fiber-look fenders and gas tank cover . As Motorcyclist magazine so kindly pointed out, "nothing before or since turns straight pavement into a party quite like it."

Jean Philippe Ruggia, 1988, Coppice at Donington Park, Sonauto-Yamaha 250. This is elbow lean action. There was a previous blog entry of Ben Spies and his elbow grazing the tarmac onboard the M1 Yamaha, I admit it is impressive but I find myself admiring the horizontal angles that Ruggia submitted his 250 Yamaha to, with the above image taken at Coppice as a prime example.

A breath of fresh air

Dean Benstead's air-powered bike project, O2 Pursuit, which we spoke about a year ago, seems to have come along nicely since. Here's a video of the Australian's rotary air compression-engined Yamaha WR250R being taken out for a spin. Apparently it can hit 87 mph and cover more than 60 miles on a scuba-tankful's worth.
