Yamaha OX99-11 
The Yamaha OX99-11 was configured as a two-seater, but not in the traditional sense of the word. The pilot sat in front of the passenger, in tandem. Its chassis was made of composite materials, with extensive use of carbon fiber in a monocoque very similar to that used in the competition car. The engine was a self-supporting structural element, just like in the Formula 1 car. The aerodynamics were top notch, and it was housed in a voluptuous handcrafted aluminum bodywork. It was a Formula 1 bodied, with a full fairing and aerodynamic spoilers as striking as the front, the intake above the passenger compartment... a spectacle on wheels. The party was right behind him. It was a naturally aspirated V12 with a displacement of 3.5 liters and 400 hp. It might seem underpowered, but it was necessary to ensure minimal reliability and durability in its street setup. The naturally aspirated V12 retained its high engine speed, so its 400 hp was reached at 10,000 rpm, figures more worthy of a sports bike. With a weight of 1,150 kg, it was capable of doing the 0 to 96 km/h in 3.2 seconds and its top speed was estimated at more than 350 km/h. Goodyear Eagle F1 tires mounted on 17-inch wheels - 315 mm section at the rear axle - ensured optimal grip on the ground.

Here's Why Yamaha Discontinued The VMAX | HotCars

Here's Why Yamaha Discontinued The VMAX | HotCars
Tumblr media
Yamaha is normally known in the motorcycle entire world for Supersports and liter-class machines. One of the very few motorbike brands that represent Western ingenuity, Yamaha has full grown over the past few years and has embarked into many genres which includes previously unchartered territories such as cruisers.
Within the advent of the ��90s, Yamaha brought out the VMAX as being a muscle cruiser. Though the title seemed to be a bit off, the particular bike was by no means the phony. In fact , the Yamaha VMAX was one of the more sought-after power cruisers available at time.
The particular VMAX had a sophisticated framework that was quite uncommon to get a cruiser . The Yamaha VMAX was given a thorough renew in 2009 and since then, the strength cruiser hasn’t been excellent in terms of sales.
With stricter emission norms burdening automakers, Yamaha’s cause to stop pouring money straight into developing a new VMAX produced sense. This inevitably made way for the power cruiser’s death post-2020.
The lack of Euro 5 conformity and falling sales resulted in Yamaha discontinuing the VMAX.
Tumblr media
Yamaha introduced the VMAX in 1985. This was a good unorthodox move for the Japan brand especially considering that this came with a V4 motor. The 1, 197-cc engine produced 145 horsepower plus 83. 1 lb-ft torque capacity. Back when it was launched, the particular VMAX quickly gained interest and positive reviews started water damage in. This led to the particular VMAX receiving the name "Bike of the Year" through Cycle Guide. Apart from the mid-cycle refresh it obtained in 1993, the VMAX remained relatively the same till 2008. Submit which, Yamaha introduced a good all-new VMAX with a brand-new chassis plus upgraded components.

This year's Yamaha VMAX came with an alternative V4 that displaced one, 679 cc and now produced 197 horsepower and 123 lb-ft of torque. Chassis-wise at this point you had upgraded brakes along with anti-lock function, fully variable suspension, slipper clutch, plus heavily revised styling, that was received with mixed responses.
The VMAX was quite literally the monstrous motorcycle. Power has been immediate but simultaneously turned out to be pointless given the weigh of the motorcycle. Although the bodyweight was evident, with the broad handlebar, there was plenty of power to create a light steering reaction, which made the VMAX very handy in low-speed corners, tight traffic, plus crowded parking lots.

It wasn’t all sunlight and rainbows. The VMAX in its whole 35-year production run noticed just one major update . Because of this, the product started to turn out to be obsolete thanks to emerging gamers like the Ducati Diavel. Even though the VMAX was modern simply by 2010 standards, the Diavel ran circles around the Western cruiser after its first appearance. This led to dwindling product sales and Yamaha decided to concentrate on their cahs cows rather than dumping more cash to the VMAX. Not to mention the strict emission norms imposed down the road. Yamaha hardly bothered along with any of that and to best it the VMAX was not even Euro 4 up to date let alone Euro 5!
Another nail in the coffin came in the form from the rather steep price tag. The particular 2020 VMAX was a $17, 999 proposition and thinking of its antisocial character combined with an uncomfortable ride plus choppy handling, it was barely justified. The mighty VMAX will be missed but the SAMT power cruiser shall stay in the hearts of every fan who once drooled within the idea of a muscle bicycle.

In an Alternate Universe, Yamaha’s OX99-11 Supercar Is a V-12 Legend
Diversification, thy name is Yamaha. Over the course of the Yamaha Motor Company’s 65-year history, none have matched the Japanese manufacturer’s absurdly extensive range of motorcycles, boats, scooters, UTVs, ATVs, golf karts, generators, snow mobiles, and even swimming pools. This is to say nothing of the Yamaha Corporation that split from Yamaha Motor Company in 1955; that Yamaha is one of the…
