Doubt this will sell, but the price of Vmax’s up north are insane. So I figured, why not list it here. Its been a fun bike and it moves for a cruiser, with current mod’s and a decent launch I bet it’ll go mid 10’s all day.

For sale: This is the carbon fiber edition 1999 Yamaha Vmax 1200. The bike has 24xxx miles on it and is in excellent condition.

\*\*\* Recently picked up a Ducati and don’t need two bikes (I do ride this weekly though so the mileage will continue to creep up\*\*\*

This bike has been garage kept its entire life and it shows.

As for modifications and maintenance, the bike has

- Steel Braided Brake lines
- Steel Braided Clutch line
- New pads
- Brand new tires, less than 800 miles on them (this will obviously go up as I still ride the bike often)
- Oil/Filter Change done at same time as tires
- Brand new NGK plugs done too (Less than 800 miles ago)
- Stage 7 Dynojet kit ( 4 individual K+N Filters, vented crank case, with V-Boost still active)
- T-Boost 3 position Switch (3k open, 6k Open (stock), and Always open)
- SuperTrapp slip on pipes
- Sissy Bar and front pouch
- Progressive rear suspension (Per previous owners statement)
- One of the side covers was seeping oil, so I just replaced it. It was a 3 dollar gasket from Yamaha, hasn’t leaked a single drop since it was done.

Real buyers only please!!! No dreamers, low ballers, or spammers!!! Best way to reach me is by email and leave a phone number; no phone number I wont reply.

I can add pics or send them via email  
Sorry about the bad pic below, its the only one on my computer

If it doesnt sell, I’ll just tuck it into the corner and ride it on the weekends. (when the italian is without a doubt being repaired. lol)

Best,  
WB

Thanks for the kind words. I’m going to take it to Starbucks in a minute. Maybe I’ll park it out front with a for sale sign on it soon.

Picked up an s4r and will probably be getting a road king or street glide soon. (and a boat, and maybe a different vehicle) and some ocean front property and a chalet in Aspen.

I rode it tonight actually it’s very underpowered and they write 1200 dollar tickets when people here do wheelies. That being said I just really want an economical commuter that’s fun to jump over things with.
