Rider Profile

Best For	This machine demands an experienced rider who respects massive torque and a heavy, power-first chassis.
Purpose	Built as a muscle cruiser whose sole mission is brutal straight-line acceleration and boulevard presence rather than cornering finesse or distance touring.
Rider Fit	At nearly 290 kg with a low seat height, it is physically manageable at rest but requires strength and confidence to manage its mass under hard acceleration and in low-speed maneuvers.
Character	It has a menacing, muscular character defined by its howling V4 and shaft-driven brute force, rewarding riders who want raw power theater over agility.
Not Ideal For	It is not for beginners, off-road enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a nimble, lightweight, or long-distance touring-friendly motorcycle.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Yamaha VMAX, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
