Today Yamaha sent a message about the new VMax to its dealers around the US:

August 22, 2007 Star Motorcycles V-Max Concept Update

Dear Yamaha Motorcycle Dealer,

At both last year’s Dealer Meeting in Las Vegas and select Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows, a Star Motorcycles V-Max Concept model was shown to gauge consumer response and acceptance. We are pleased to inform you that further development of this concept model will continue from our factory during the year ahead and be assured that we will do our best to keep you informed of its progress during this time.

Thank you and best wishes for continued success,

Bob Starr

General Manager, National Communications Motorsports Group Company

The good news: The new VMax is coming for sure

The bad news: Another year of waiting. We expect the bike to be released as a 2009 model year version
