    Cool, when they put it in a normal motorcycle I might buy one.

      the dyno does not fib. this beast put out 172 RWHP with 300 miles on it. most 1,000 cc crotch rockets do about 150 RWHP. a new busha or ZX14 put out about 160 - 165 RWHP. yes these 500 lb chain drive bikes will be faster. but the v MAX is far ahead of all other cruisers like the m 109, v rod etc. not even close.
      i am very impressed, it is so evil looking i will give it a pass on some of the egros. this same guy has a new B king ,m109 and a 130 RWHP torbo warrior. the best all around bike of them all is the B king. maybe the exhaust is ugly but if you like a standard naked bike with busha power their is no equil to a B king. of all his bikes i like the V max the most, the B king second. he sold his ZX14. i did not like that bike. it was the fastest bike i ever have been on but the riding position sucked. i just do not understand how grown men enjoy a riding position like that on a street bike.

        It may be a great bike, but its too ugly for me to live with. hehehe
        I couldnt make myself buy one if they were 1/4th the price.
