AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Yamaha VMAX 1200, first series, beautifully aged patina. Practical, subtle modification to Deget rear wheel 6.0 x 17 for tires 180/55 ZR 17 and superbike handlebars for better handling. All registered, tire size without brand restrictions. Not a showpiece, but a real Black Daily Driver with style and character. Front tires new, V-Boost adjustable: 'No boost at 3000 rpm, boost at 6000 rpm.'
Max once had a very long stand time. During the revival, the clutch was replaced because it was stuck. Both front manifolds were also replaced with new parts four years ago. The rear silencer was replaced with a used part that shows visible signs of wear from its previous use.
Still an absolutely great motorcycle without modern modifications – it brings a grin from ear to ear. Complex but manageable technology. No original paint. TÜV valid until 07/26, driven about 2,800 miles annually over the past four years with seasonal license plates. No maintenance backlog, reliable. Unfortunately, I have to part with it due to health reasons.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
