Cycle World is the biggest motorcycle magazine in the US and this time it's the 26th year the new metal tours America. The shows are sponsored by Toyota Trucks and we attended the Long Beach, California show where many new concepts were unveiled for the first time. If you live in the US the schedule for the remaining shows are at the bottom of this page so that you can attend the show closest to you. All photography by: Tor Sagen

Yamaha/Star

Vmax concept bike

The biggest news from the Long Beach show is perhaps the unveiling of the Yamaha/Star V-max concept bike. This is the first time the bike can bee seen outside of Japan where it was built. The US engineers and marketing people are heavily involved in the concept and now is the time for the US public to see and give feedback. We suspect this is the last stint for the concept bike and that a decision will be made by Yamaha during 2007 whether to mass produce or not. We hope that they will. The bike features a V4 engine of unknown size.
