YAMAHA V-MAX (2006-2007) Specs, Performance & Photos

One of the elite muscle bikes in the industry, the 2006 V-Max is a good example of Yamaha's skills of blending unbridled power and mind-blowing acceleration with power cruiser styling and a legendary road stance. The V-Max has been a milestone in the segment for more than two decades so the 2006 model year only followed the same zero-compromise recipe.

The 1198cc V4 engine is fearsome, but going over 6000 revs gives you the real measure of what brutal really is. Thanks to the V-Boost technology, all hell breaks loose as the variable intake system opens up and simulates supercharger operation.
