Star Motorcycles VMAX 2016

It's kind of odd birds, and VMAX. It seems that he is having an identity crisis. There are undeniable strings of DNA cruiser in there, but tales of the gene is dominant, and the bike seems to flaunt that half of mixed heritage.
Chassis
Star Motorcycles VMAX
The entire chassis of aluminum is a bone with a diamond frame and cast aluminum swingarm, and the sub-frame extruded to keep things nice and light. Riding the fuel tank under the seat where it maintains a low center of gravity, and adds to a sense of control at low speeds, but I question the wisdom of having to wave gas link on each seat in filling the tank.
Front forks huge addition to the look-up for the confrontation of the VMAX, and 52 mm, and forks right side up perched on the front to 4.7 inches of travel front. Forks come with the usual preload and rebound / compression damping adjustments, and it combines with the head 31 degrees Leadership 5.8 inches of trail. A monoshock springs and swingarm, and it comes Negotiable fully adjustable through the air tank remote mountain.
Brakes comes loaded for bear with a pair of 320 mm, and reduce the wave discs up front and 298 mm disc at the rear. Caliper Brembo dual-link front wheel with six pot, opposed piston calipers, and a single pot rear Brembo control. I do not lie, and the combined 12 pistons calipers add up front until a tremendous amount of braking energy, and that for once I am really happy to see ABS, 'cause this sled definitely needs.
payment system
Star Motorcycles VMAX
Now the beating heart. And 0.102 cubic inches (1679 cc) engine and cooling liquid. Really a piece of the engine, and comes in four V- formation that fills the frame quite wide, and it's anything but a boat anchor. Official word from the factory 123 pound-feet of torque at 6,500 rpm, and some 10 pounds greater than the Pope of this family engine that came out in '09. I do not have any official word about the horsepower yet, but if I had to guess, I would say that somewhere around the same sign as the 175 horsepower '09, or at least in the neighborhood of it.
And it contributes to a number of interrelated systems of this authority. Yamaha uses its own version of the ride-wire system with throttle control chip (YCC-T) instead of mechanical throttle cable, which handles the actual position of the throttle grip as more of a guideline, the actual base. This allows the engine throttle to work in harmony to Walantqal and smooth power delivery. Yamaha Chip Controlled amount (YCC-I) takes a page from the book of MV Agusta's as a way to shorten the length of eating high RPM, a feature that helps to bring the powerband a little sooner, with more than a little gravity.
Slipper clutch some safety technology provides speed while reducing aggressive, and makes easy to pull on the arm. A five-speed tranny sends power to the rear wheels via a drive shaft, all geared to control the immense power of the engine.
price
Star Motorcycles VMAX
You can ride off on the VMAX for $ 17.990 with a limited warranty for one year, but only in the Galaxy blue plate. Price and performance both seem to be putting this ride in the category of "upgrade", and will make a good ride for someone with some experience looking for a second, or third, riding.
competitor
Star Motorcycles VMAX Ducati Diavel Carbon
Since VMAX is technically a power cruiser, cruiser went with another powerful and brutal, and this one from Italy. And carbon from Ducati Diavel.
Although the hump fuel tank on the Diavel visually distinguishes it from most other bikes, eating scoops both horse fattening front facades ride, so all look like runners hid in blocks. It is assigned to each of the triangles rider to get a ride upright posture basis, and should be comfortable in all parts of the city and on the long, open stretch.
In 162 ponies and 96 pound-feet of torque, and engine Testastretta the Duc falls a little short of 123 lb-ft of VMAX, but it does not come with a full battery of good electronic things that are on par with, and perhaps superior to, Yamaha instruments.
In the past year, Diavel went for $ 20.995, and I would imagine that this year will be close to it. That leaves us with VMAX rolling in almost 3K cheaper, a large sum for this performance and a similar style
