2020 Yamaha VMAX

An iconic machine that carries clout with its powerful 1679cc V4 engine delivering drag racing style and performance.

Features may include:

• Power Unrelenting

The thunderous 1679cc, 65-degree, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected four valves-per-cylinder, DOHC engine pumps out astonishing power to reinvent the VMAX legend. You’ve never experienced anything like it.

• Variable Length Intakes

The superbike-proven Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-I) switches nearly instantaneously between 150mm and 54mm height intake funnels as needed for a broad powerband that delivers optimum performance at any rpm.

• Ride-by-Wire Throttle

Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T), the fly-by-wire system, delivers optimum acceleration under all conditions.

• High-Tech Aluminum Chassis

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.

• Huge, High-tech Fork

Cartridge-damper-type front forks have substantial 52mm inner tubes with oxidized titanium coating. Forks have both compression and rebound damping adjustability plus spring preload.

• Fully Adjustable Remote Reservoir Shock

Link-type Monocross® rear suspension has a remote reservoir and features compression and rebound clickers plus remote preload adjustment.

• Calculating Power

The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) uses three microprocessors to control fuel injection, ignition, YCC-T, YCC-I, meters and other electrical components.

• Drag-style Instruments

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.
