        I can hardly wait. It's an 07 model with 4600 miles. The owner is 61 as I am. He wants a dual purpose bike instead.

            I just picked one up myself off of Ebay. Its a super clean 1990 model with only 15000 miles. I love it so far and I know you will love yours too! Here's a pic of mine.

                  Put 300 on it, not 3000. Also took the backrest/luggage rack off and put the stock grab rail back on.

                      The odometer is in kilometers. 7600k is approx. 4600 miles. Still runnung the original tires.

                          Lost two friends to V-Max's in '85-'86, Incredible motor. I always wondered why they never stuck it in like an FJ chassis or something. It's too late now, but back then I imagine a bike like that woulda squashed a lot of the competition. Too big? Too heavy? I dunno.

                            It's funny, I actually hated they way they looked when they first came out, but I have seen so many cool modded ones that I now think they are cool.
                            There is a Max club in Allentown and I have ridden with them a couple of times.
