HIGHLIGHTS
Unlike any other motorcycle available today, the VMAX is truly in a class of its own. The awesome acceleration and muscular beauty combines with sporty handling and Yamaha's electronic engine management technologies to offer an incredibly exhilarating riding experience.
POWER
Liquid-cooled, 1,679cc, DOHC, 16-valve, 65°, V-4 engine has no equal in its class. The compact engine design has allowed the engineers to place the engine in the "sweet spot" of the frame to optimize handling.
PERFORMANCE
DOHC 4-valve "pent roof" cylinder head design provides optimum breathing efficiency for incredible engine performance. Valve actuation is via under bucket shims. Compression ratio is 11.3:1
ENGINE
Liquid-cooled, 1,679cc, DOHC, 16-valves, 65°, V-4 engine has no equal in its class. The compact engine design has allowed the engineers to place the engine in the "sweet spot" of the frame to optimize handling.
DOHC, 4-valve "pent roof" cylinder head design.
compact pent roof combustion chambers with 11.3:1 compression ratio
exhaust cams are driven by a gear drive off the intake cams
design allows for more compact cylinder heads since the distance or "pitch" between the camshafts is reduced.
High-performance camshafts.
provide incredible engine performance
Automatic hydraulic cam chain tensioners.
reduced engine mechanical noise
reduced maintenance.
Lightweight, forged, aluminum short skirt pistons.
design aids in fast engine response
reduced mechanical vibration
excellent durability
Fracture split con rods are carburized and use a "nut less" design.
lower end "cap" of the rod is made from the same piece of material as the upper portion; the 2 pieces are "split" apart using a special process known as fracture splitting & then machined
fracture splitting ensures true big end roundness & greater precision in con rod dimensions for excellent durability despite high horsepower loads
180-degree crankshaft design.
Direct ceramic composite plated "liner less" cylinders.
ceramic coating sprayed directly on the cylinder blocks, eliminating the liner & reducing weight
excellent heat dissipation for consistent power delivery
coating enhances the thin film of oil between the cylinder & piston, reducing friction & increasing power
Crankcase incorporates the cylinders into the upper half of the cases to reduce weight.
Super light magnesium alloy crankcase covers.
Gear-driven engine counter balancer shaft.
reduces vibration for excellent rider comfort
balance ratio is 50% to allow some pulse feel / character
Twin radiator design.
curved upper rad... curved rad offer more surface area & improved cooling versus a flat rad
lower flat rad
each rad has its own cooling fan
Oil-to-coolant heat exchanger type oil cooler
maintains stable lubricant temperatures for extended engine life
system features Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) and D.C. motor driven throttle valves
YCC-T system provides precise control of intake air volume for a smoother torque curve
ECU that controls YCC-T is capable of responding to changes at a speed of 1000th of a second
rider can "mechanically close" the throttles by simply closing the throttle twist grip
Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-I) system.
intake funnels / stacks vary in length between 2 pre-set positions depending on engine rpm
servo motor varies funnel length from 150mm (low to mid rpms) to the short setting of 54mm for high rpm
transition rpm is approximately 6,650 rpms
electronic servo motor varies the funnels. The revolutionary YCC-I provides the best of both worlds ? solid low rpm torque & power combined with an amazing high rpm rush. It takes only 0.3 of a second for the funnels to move from the tall to the short position.
Large capacity air box uses a viscous-type paper air filter.
Functional, hand finished aluminum intake covers highlight Yamaha's quality & attention to detail.
4-into-1-into-2 into-4 exhaust system.
design make a serious styling statement & also provides excellent performance
3-way honeycomb catalytic converter in the under engine "muffler box" reduces emissions
design maximizes power, centralizes mass & lowers the centre of gravity for light, agile handling
Yamaha's EXUP System (Exhaust Ultimate Power Valve).
part of the mid ship exhaust system
utilizes a titanium body & butterfly valves that prevent the "blow back" phenomenon caused by "valve overlap"
radial mount design helps to reduce caliper distortion for improved braking performance
Brembo radial pump master cylinder with a 16mm piston
brake lever is adjustable for various hand sizes
ABS equipped, 298mm wave-style rear disc is squeezed by a single-piston slide-type caliper
caliper is mounted below the swingarm for a handling enhancing lower centre of gravity
sintered metal brake pads
14mm Brembo master cylinder
Anti-lock braking system features Yamaha's latest ABS system, very similar to that found on the FJR1300. The linear controlled 3-position ABS system features an ECU with an integrated compact hydraulic unit built into the ECU. System also uses active type wheel sensors.
ABS system helps to prevents wheel lock-up
main benefit of ABS is excellent control under hard braking or braking on wet or slippery surfaces
benefits include; reduced weight & mass centralization for lighter handling
Lightweight cast aluminum 5-spoke mag wheels front & rear.
both wheels utilize hollow "spokes" to reduce unsprung weight for superior handling & suspension performance
front rim is 3.50 x 18 , rear is 6.00 x 18... both use radial tires
Conventional design makes it easier to change handlebar bend
Multi-function handlebar mounted meter / instrument
functions include; analog tachometer & digital speedo
adjustable shift indicator light
Multi-function fuel tank mounted meter / instrument
second dual mode, multi-function display is located on top of the "fuel tank" and uses a highly visible 256 x 64 dot matrix "Organic Electro Luminescence display"
Immobilizer ignition system is designed to reduce the possibility of "ride away" theft.
system must recognize the "coded ignition key" in order for the unit to start
if the immobilizer ignition does not recognize the key, the ignition system & starter will not function, even if the ignition is forced into the on position
DETAILS
Lightweight forged aluminum shift lever & rear brake pedal
Stylish key with special key case holder
Lean angle engine kill switch prevents unit from running if it is on its side to avoid engine damage
Steering lock is integrated into the main ignition switch for extra convenience
Helmet holder
Bungee cord fastening points
Oil level sight glass window
Low-maintenance, sealed battery (battery should be charged during winter storage)
