This example was manufactured in 1993 and thus is a desirable 1st Generation V-Max, the most sought-after by collectors. The machine was purchased new by Hans in June 1993 from Motorradsport Schmid of Munich (where Helmut worked). Helmut had sourced this full power model from Canada, and he and Hans then set about extensively modifying it, fitting a BRA Pendelfreie (literally: 'pendulum free') reinforced frame kit/engine mounts, developed for V-Max riders who wanted a more stable chassis. Other notable features of this unique V-Max include a PVM brake conversion; lightweight rear-sets, Öhlins shock absorbers; Akront wheel rims; titanium bolts; and lots of chrome: side panels, clutch cover, etc as detaled on the accompanying German Fahrzeugschein. Currently displaying a total of 5,343 kilometres on the odometer, the machine is offered with an expired TüV (MoT) certificate and correspondence; 2001 servicing invoice; owner's manual; and riding tips booklet.
