Ever wondered how do 1679cc, 200 hp, and 123 lb-ft of torque look like when packed in a motorcycle? The answer is the 2009 MY V-Max, one of the elite muscle bikes and a major trendsetter in the powercruiser segment. The new model year brings advanced technologies to make riding this beast even more exhilarating than it already was. Revised ECU mappings and updated YCC-Throttle and YCC-Ignition settings provide crisper acceleration and more explosive power for riders who are not afraid to taste pure adrenaline.
