A standing quarter mile in under 10 seconds is expected, thanks to a massive V-four engine, expected to be at least 1800cc, and more than 200bhp. They might have to raise the compression in the V-Rods, or maybe mount two engines tractor-pull style. |

As far as a Yamaha muscle bike, I much prefer the MT-01. when is that coming to the US????? |

Mike Corbin has one. He shows it off at Americade every year. After seeing it in person, I'll pass. |

Is the seat sitting directly on the exhaust? If so I'll pass also. Might catch the tush on fire, just ask Billy Lane. |

That MT-01 just rubs me the wrong way, but it's a good example of Buell's influence on Japanese sensibilities. I bet any late model tuber could best that heap in every facet of performance and handling. |

Always had a soft spot for the V-Max, . . it just got hard! |

owned an 87 VMax... it is why i will never own a shaft drive bike again. No leaning and cutting apexes with that beast, it tends to hop in power applications in a left hand leaner. ugh besides it is way ill suited for the mud |

You can't judge ALL shaft-driven bikes by the V-Max. That'd be like judging all belt-driven bikes by the Boss Hoss, or all chain-driven bikes by the Kawasaki H-1. |
