[Mike Heidrick]

I really liked these pictures my sister took of my 2010 Vmax so I thought I would share.

Crazy cool! My first big street bike was also the first street superbike, a 1979 Yamaha XS11 bought brand new at Santa Fe Yamaha. Man I miss that bike.

Do you have some stats on that? Horsepower, torque, 0-300 mph?

[Mike Heidrick]

196hp 122ft/lb torque - never been on the strip but all kinds of videos in the low 10s and 9s stock on you tube. Its all in the rider and I am not that good for sure! Check it out. Mine did 86 in 3rd gear and was not redlined (9500-11500 is redline). In 4th I blipped it to pass 3 cars and was at 118 instantly. Stock it is 140mph limited but an easily purchased Yamaha ECU (from any dealer or on Ebay) or reflash of stock ECU gets you 1-1 throttle response (vs 3-1 stock) and 168mph.

Very sporty looking machine! But I notice there are no bugs on it...Doncha ride it?:D
Hope you know I'm yankin' your chain Mike! Makes my old pan look like a moped. Very nice indeed!

[Mike Heidrick]

Better look at the mirrors and tach in pic 6 again - nats are horrible here right now. That pic was after 65 miles to my aunts house.

[Bruce Page]

196hp! Back in the 80's I put a big bore kit & stage II cams in my 11 and I was only getting ~105hp. It was fast in it's day but a dog compared to today.

[Mike Heidrick]

The bike I traded in on this, an '05 warrior, was 101hp as well and was no slouch. The Vmax is just in a different league than the usual cruiser.

[Jeff Monson]

Sweet bike Mike, the vmax is wicked fast. I used to have a V65 Honda and my roommate had a vmax, not even close. His tail light was all I ever saw of that bike.

[Rod Sheridan]

Mike, very nice bike, however it's so clean................Don't you ride it?:D

(Says the guy with always dirty BMW):eek:

regards, Rod.

[Zach England]

Looks dangerous.

My first bike was a VMAX back in 1985. I wasn't exactly a mature adult then and I remember doing a few things on it that I regret. It got to the point that I was actually scared of the bike because of my own immaturity. After seeing yours it makes me want to get another. At this stage in my life though, I think I am more of a Goldwing or Ultra classic touring bike kind of guy. One thing I do remember about the VMAX was the sheer acceleration of it.

Awwwhhh!!! I just sold my Honda Valkyrie on Saturday and you hadda go and post bike pics! Nice looking Mr. Max. I do miss my Valkyrie already, but it was time to part ways.

[John McClanahan]

It would turn a few heads cruising past our local Sonic drive in, but i will stick with my Goldwing.
