Description

The first owner purchased the Yamaha in 1986. He used the motorcycle and installed a tuning kit called Butterfly at a price of 4,500 SEK nearly 40 years ago. Many years have passed since then, and in 1991, after a few more owners, the motorcycle ended up with a man who used it for nine years before falling ill and parking the motorcycle. This happened in the year 2000. The daughter then took over the motorcycle, and since then, it has been stored in a storage unit, hence the low mileage reading of approximately 4,403 miles. The current owner acquired the Yamaha in the winter of 2022 and has serviced the motorcycle with new oil, filters, spark plugs, and oil in the driveshaft. It has also been equipped with a new battery and clutch cylinder. An authorized workshop has cleaned and adjusted the carburetors. A compression test has been performed, showing 9.5 for cylinder 1, 10.3 for cylinder 2, 9.5 for cylinder 3, and 9.5 for cylinder 4, as seen in the picture. The motorcycle passed its inspection in April 2023 without any remarks.

Facts about the model

amaha V-max is a motorcycle that was introduced in 1985. The model was heavily influenced by contemporary muscle cars, like a "drag racer" on two wheels. There are various claims about its horsepower, ranging from 130 to 145 horsepower measured at the crankshaft, but measurements typically show just under 120 horsepower at the rear wheel. The motorcycle model gained somewhat of a cult following and was produced with almost no changes for over 25 years. In 2009, a successor was introduced, maintaining the same design but with significant modernization.
