  • R III Vs V-Max ? a big reason to envy vivek soni !

    i am a huge fan of triump rocket 3, but this roadtest http://motorcyclistonline.com/roadtests/r3vsmax/ between R3 and V-Max was really an eye opener... i always knew yamaha had a V-Max and also they recently launched a 20 year anniversiry version but i never bothered to do a bit more research into the bike.. man, V-Max rocks, wish i had the moolah to buy vivek's bike.

          ya man.. R3 is a gigantic machine and it is expected to perform the way it does but i never knew v-max is such a legend , it defies the term cruiser , well it's a cross breed .. not a cruiser, not a sports bike but a different segment all together...

          man, that's what i want bullet to be... dreamin !!!!

            Yamaha V-Max type of bikes you'll get in the start to mid 80's Era as that time some rock and Pop stars ride bikes like this.Remember the bike driven by Prince the famous Pop star?
            My first and last passion 1979 Legendry Honda CBX,as sound+looks is not power.
            sound+power=looks.

              The Triumph is much better looking by my prespective.
              Locking the front and flipping is the worst experience you could err experience.

                          Haven't bought one as yet...but planning to within a month or so, if I get a good summer internship at an investment bank. Got to take care of the money inflow before the outflow. You know what I mean.

                          I think its gonna be a toss-up between the Yam FJR1300 or the Super blackbird...I need a bike comfortable for long tours...another option is the ZZR1100...there is one piece available that is turbocharged by the mrturbo kit (refer www.mrturbo.com for details). Damn thing takes out 250bhp on ordinary pump gas...go for higher octane fuel/ race gas, you can crank up the boost to churn out 300bhp plus...damn scary

                          Cheers
