Any Vmax owners here?

Well, I met up with the guy that owned the Raider last night and we struck a deal on my FZ09. I actually ended up knowing the guy from a business relationship and he lived 10 minutes away from me. Seeing it in person, it did not have a single nick on it, I mean, not one single blemish. Everything was polished up nicely (I really dislike chrome) but it looked really clean. I hoped on it and loved it. Coming from many sport bikes, it felt like a lazy boy on wheels with the forward controls. The 1900cc put down some decent power, not quite like I thought it would but I am used to a different platform. Don't get me wrong, it was no slouch and would run up to 85mph in a hurry but I am used to wrist snapping, high RPM, hold on to your lug nuts kind of power; not smooth torque delivery. Anyways, the old lady gave it the seal of approval as long as it did not keep her from parking in the garage. I had to do some shuffling around and I quickly realized what a long bitch it really was but made her fit. Anyways, here is some pictures of it and I look forward to learning all about it. Appreciate all the advice given!

Remember it's a cruiser, not crotch rocket.

I'd call it a "COUCH rocket."

Get back with me in 2-3 years to tell me how it's resale value has held up.

Either way at least you're riding. Just remember it's a different animal when carving turns in the hills, or even local turn lanes.
