After the unveiling in Madrid a few days ago the Star V-Max makes a whole new entry, which I can say is more characteristic to a muscle bike. Words of presentation seemed to be in vain as the public goes crazy when the beast roars as it does an amazing burnout, proving it has got the torque and horsepower to shred that massive rear tire in an instant.

Yamaha proves to have caught the big wave in 2008 as there has been intensive work being put into the development of the new V-Max and the results are simply fabulous. You will wonder how do we know all that or if this is yet another speculation related to the Yamaha icon when it comes to muscle bikes, but no, this is the real thing fresh out of the drawing board.

Unveiled in north of Madrid on a small airport and accompanied by jet planes flying in formation, the new V-Max is expected to regain its former glory and, of course, remain truthful to the amazing acceleration figures that everybody craves about.

If it will keep on going like this, we will soon see it flying on the sky right next to the Spanish Eagle Patrol.
