1993 Yamaha V Max review from United States of America
"Great muscle bike with cruiser looks"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
So far, nothing.
General comments?
Motorcycle is unbelievable in straight line acceleration.
When v-boost comes on-line, you are seriously heading down the road and it pulls like no other bike I have ever owned.
Seat is not very comfortable compared to my Ultra Classic, but then hey, my HD is a totally different kind of bike.
This bike is my daily rider for sheer fun about town. Harley reserved for when the wife wants to come along on long rides.
While seriously capable of those 125 and above speeds, it does get a little squirlie above 115 or so, which is as fast as my spinchter muscle dared to push it.
