The best bike I've ever owned of at least 30. I've always wanted a v-max, but could never afford one. It suits me just great as I'm not a big guy so the bike is easy to handle.
Simple layout means maintenance is a breeze.
Plenty of poke from the motor and a comfy sit up and beg position. Takes me and the wife on loooong weekends fully loaded. Cheap to run and insure. Legendary cult bike. Still looks amazing after 15 years.
