New design 2009 Yamaha VMAX motorcycle

I''ve been anticipating this release for a long time:

Edit:  "Only" $18,000, eh?  Too bad, Yamaha.  With the white elephant SUV sitting in the driveway gathering dust, people are going to be buying a new Fit, Yaris, or a Smart for that kind of dough.

Nice bike, but I'm not really a huge fan of the inlet and muffler design .... too big, but otherwise, really nice!!!

Nice.  That thing is huge! But for that kind of money, I would buy a Harley. The intakes on the side look like some sort of supercharger wannabe though. I'm not a fan of that. 

$18000? Nah not for me

For 18k.....I could do so much better.

Rebuild the motor, work on the car''s exterior, sound, etc.

Or buy myself a nice commuter car lol

Nice. Expensive. Sounds like everything I like...

In honor of this upgrading of a 24-year-old model, here are some picutures (from here: http://www motorcycle-usa  com/Article_Page.aspx?ArticleID=6556&Page=1 ) (For the first time in 24 years, those scoops are now functional):

that is so ugly
 
lets see pay $18,000 for that ugly thing, or pay $12,000 for a Hayabusa.............tough choice

haha suzuki FTW im thinking about getting an 06 Gixxr
