Yamaha V Max description
If you're looking at this bike, you probably already know what it is. If you don't, here is a little bit about it. The Yamaha V-Max was first introduced in 1985 to compete with the Honda Magna. The bike's production lasted until 2007 (making my bike the last year of the original V-Max.). The bike is extremely fast and has what is called V-Boost. V-Boost is at 6K RPM when butterfly valves open and the bike turns from a fast bike to a REALLY fast bike. You can feel it kick in and hear the sound change. The bike is extremely clean and runs beautifully. I haven't ridden it much because of work and school schedules, but it's definitely a fun bike. The previous owner told me he had the seat repacked to make it more comfortable and it is pretty comfortable. I just replaced the battery in the last month. The only negative this bike has is that the back tire leaks down after about a week. It's never been a problem for me and I just keep an eye on it. Other than that, the bike is great. No test rides without cash in hand and if you want to ship it, you are responsible for arrangements.

Yamaha Named Official Motorcycle Of Road America
Thu, 02 May 2013The economic downturn hit the motorcycle world particularly hard, as many factory-backed road racing efforts closed shop. The decision, while unfortunate, isn’t hard to understand, as racing at the highest levels isn’t cheap, and a factory involvement means added pressure to succeed, which ultimately means spending more money to do so. Through it all, however, Yamaha has remained involved with the sport, fielding factory teams and sponsoring various riding schools and even racetracks.
Yamaha Reports 2013 Sales Results
Wed, 12 Feb 2014Yamaha reported a 1.2% decrease in motorcycle sales in 2013 but managed to increase its net sales revenue by 16.2%, thanks in large part to the depreciation of the Japanese yen. According to the company’s 2013 fiscal report, Yamaha sold 6,014,000 motorcycles last year, down slightly from 6,090,000 sold in 2012. The good news however, is most of the sales decrease was limited to Thailand and Vietnam where the economy worsened in 2013, while Yamaha’s sales increased in nearly all other markets.
