New 'Future V-Max' appears in Japan ... Scroll down for the full story
More mad stuff from Tokyo - this time it's a vision of a future V-Max from Yamaha. We've got this pic so far, which shows an unmistakably V-Max design, but updated with some smart new features. We see six-piston radial-mount calipers on petal discs, and some sort of bronze-finished engine, together with a strange, solid-looking seat unit. Shaft drive is still there, as is the V-four layout, V-boost style inlet setup, and twin shocks. Two large rads point to a high-output motor, and the exhaust echoes the new FZ-1 design.
More coming soon...
