Nope. Triumph has more torque and larger fuel tank... it'll be riding off into the sunset as you lily pad it between gas stations on the Vmax given it's piss poor range.2nd gen vmax > rocket III.....200hp of v4 muscle...mmm

50hp less, 200lbs more, physically much larger and tankish, and took them twice as many CCs to do it...i think thats a fair trade for 40ft-lbs...ide take the vmax plz

I know... I just wanted pictures of them side by side.oh yea...and that link you posted sucks lol...it doesnt tell any hp/tq numbers for the vmax, and it posts incorrect numbers for the triumph...it says 105bhp and 150 ft-lbs... when its actually 150bhp and 163 ft-lbs
Actually for 2010, the Trumpie makes 165 lb-ft @ 2750 and 146hp @ 5750...weighing 807lbs
http://www.autoblog....b-ft-of-torque/
The 2009 Vmax @ around 700lbs
http://www.motorcycl...x/photo_18.html
Trumpie wins even if it is 100lbs heavier...
*Better range
*Massive torque @ low RPM
*Better Torque/weight ratio
...I guess to be fair, this isn't an identical apples-to-apples comparison (the Vmax dyno seems to be from the wheel vs. the triumph which I assume is measured at the crank. There may also be an issue of dry vs. wet weight quoted between the two), but even so... Triumph > Vmax for a power CRUISER.

just realized that the torque numbers for that rocket III were at 2750rpm...thats insane lol....anything below 3k and my bike bogs out like a motherfucker and has seizures when you hit the gas lol
i would still take the vmax as its much more nimble than the rocket...then again, i like to try and pretend like my vmax can take curves lol
and i cant argue the range, shit my 1st gen is only getting 100-120 miles per tank
