The truth of the matter is that, over the years - 15 now, in fact - Mad Max has been wiping the boulevard with pretty much every musclebike-come-lately in terms of pure, unadulterated acceleration. But then, what else would you expect from a machine with hotted-up, high-lift cams and a quartet of massive downdraft carbs stoking its ravenous V-4 powerplant. And that's just for starters - things really get fun once the tachometer sweeps past 6000 rpm and a little thing called V-Boost induction kicks in, force-feeding the engine, via a servo-controlled butterfly valve, huge mouthfuls of unleaded. When V-Max's fat, 6" rear tire hooks up, it's all you can do to say "Brace for light speed, Luke."
There is a civilized side to the brute, however, with its vibration-quelling counterbalancer, smooth, hydraulically activated clutch, adjustable front and rear suspension, triple disc brakes, and new-for-'99 carbon-fiber-look fenders and gas tank cover. But don't let these, um, refinements fool you. V-Max has always been about two things: attitude and acceleration. And, as Motorcyclist magazine so kindly pointed out, "nothing before or since turns straight pavement into a party quite like it."
