Stopped by the Starmotorcycles page today and saw they had the info about the 2009 V-Max up. I don't remember seeing anyone else talk about it on here. I see it has:Type1679cc liquid-cooled 65° V-4, DOHC, 4 valves/cylinder http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif Bore x Stroke90.0mm x 66.0mm http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif Compression Ratio11.3:1 http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif Fuel DeliveryFuel Injection with YCC-T and YCC-I http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif IgnitionTCI http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif Transmission5-speed, multiplate slipper clutch http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/common/line.gif Final DriveShaft.

 

 

high hopes anyone??????????? The site also has info on the 2009 Vstars....250, 650 and 1100. Nothing on the others as of yet.

Saw that yesterday...didnt even think about posting it on here.

 

I know that its about 198 horses. Should be about right!

There was some discussion a couple of days ago about the new Vmax.

Interesting stuff.

Hoping it will be in the 2010 Venture. Don't think they will have time to get it into the 09's
