Yamaha is feeding in a little extra fuel into the the saga about the all new Yamaha Star VMax. Only weeks after the prototype/sculpture has been shown in Long Beach, it remarks the continues spinup of Yamaha's marketing efforts for the arrival of the new Muslce Bike.
With Need-6 Yamaha has launched a strange but memorizing website to promote the need for ultimate acceleration. Presented to the world during the Tokyo Motor show, the site marks the start for Yamaha's marketing machine to promote the New Next Generation Yamaha Star VMax. Written in small letter and almost invisible to the new or returning visitor of the site, the home page contains a few words about NEWs that have been posted/added to the website. Three areas are highlighted: - "Short Movies Need 6" is released
- "A few words from people further pursuing Need 6." is released
- "Are you suppressed or obsessed" is updated
