2014 Yamaha VMAX, VMAX ALL MUSCLE, ALL BRAINS The VMAX is the ultimate fusion of brawn and brains. The unique features of this iconic beast are richly blended with advanced sportbike technology and forward-thinking style. It all adds up to a machine with immense performance and visual power. The VMAX truly is in a class by itself. ADDITIONAL FEATURES The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) uses three microprocessors to control fuel injection, ignition, YCC-T, YCC-I, meters and other electrical components. Distinctive key design reinforces the unique character of the VMAX. The instrument panel includes an analog, step-motor driven tachometer, and digital speedometer with LED indicator lights. Prominent LED shift timing indicator adds to the performance character of the VMAX. Organic electroluminescence multifunction display provides a more precise display vs. LCD and includes clock, fuel meter, trip meter with fuel reserve trip meter, transmission gear position, coolant temperature, stopwatch, and more. H4 60/55W headlight provides excellent visibility and distinctive style, while the trick-looking LED taillight is light, bright and highly efficient. Rare earth magnet AC magneto puts out a robust 420W at 5,000 rpm. CHASSIS / SUSPENSION The chassis is light and compact, with a cast aluminum main frame, controlled-fill die-cast and extruded aluminum rear frame and cast aluminum swingarm. The result is superb rigidity balance for both hard acceleration off the line and corner carving. Cartridge-damper-type front forks have substantial 52 mm inner tubes with oxidized titanium coating. Forks have both compression and rebound damping adjustability plus spring preload. Link-type Monocross® rear suspension has a piggyback reservoir and features compression and rebound clickers, plus remote preload adjustment. VMAX uses Brembo® master cylinders, the front with radial pump and reserve tank. Large 320 mm wave-style dual front discs are matched to radial-mounted mono block 6-piston calipers. On the rear wheel, there s a 298 mm disc, also wave design, and single-piston caliper. These high-tech brakes also incorporate three-position ABS. Tapered handlebar provides a muscular 1-1/8-inch diameter look at the triple clamp while using conventionally sized controls. 18-inch radial tires, 120/70 R18 front and 200/50 R18 rear, are mounted on cast aluminum five-spoke wheels. For mass centralization that contributes to the bike s lean looks, the 4-gallon (15 liter) fuel tank is mounted under the seat, with the filler under the rider s backrest. ENGINE The thunderous 1,679 cc, 65-degree, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected four-valves-per-cylinder, DOHC engine pumps out astonishing power to reinvent the VMAX legend. The superbike-proven Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-I) switches nearly instantaneously between 150 mm and 54 mm intake funnels as needed for a broad powerband that delivers op
