whats awesome (besides the 210hp) is you look at it, and it still looks like a V-Max...

Hmm, I'm surprised you don't like it. I figured a bike like that has Dan written all over it :shrug:

the exhaust can be changed...


ive always have mixed feelings about the Vmax.. on one hand, its fun to ride, and its a cool dragbike..

on the other hand it looks heavy... and it is... i cant say its ugly, it just looks heavy... and the CG is so high that it feels heavy.

but when you point it straight and twist the grip.. you cant help but grin in your helmet...



i donno about it out acclerating a ducati desmo rr though.......

It would be totally ugly in green!

I do like it because it looks like no other bike out there, its just a little ugly. I've riden them before, and they are a blast. I would even own one, but....I'd have to um...alter it :borg:

The exhaust would be the first thing to be altered.
