This example was manufactured in 1992 and thus is a desirable 1st Generation V-Max, the most sought-after by collectors. The machine was purchased new by Hans in July 1992 from Motorradsport Schmid of Munich (cost: 16,590 DM). Hans and Helmut Lichtenberg then set about extensively modifying it, fitting floating brake discs, Beringer brake callipers (6-pot at the front); BBS billet wheels, bespoke White Power front forks and adjustable rear shocks; Devil exhaust system; and improved engine plates to reduce vibration and stiffen the ride (said to be very 'tight'). To complete the picture, the brake reservoir, side panels, engine components, clutch cover and driveshaft were all chromium plated.
Currently displaying a total of 8,103 kilometres on the odometer, the machine is offered with Goldfren brake pads (very rare) as supplied by Fritz Egli; German Fahrzeugschein; expired TüV (MoT) certificate and correspondence; 2002 invoice for new tyres; 2000 Motorradsport Schmid invoice for servicing: two VMX12U owner's manuals; and a Yamaha Riding Tips booklet.
