Motorbike Insurance

Yamaha is set to unveil its latest motorcycle, which may tempt motorbike insurance customers to part with their money.

The new 200hp VMAX bike will be on show at a special event being held at Ace Cafe, Brighton Burn-up on Sunday September 14th.

Simon Belton, from Yamaha Motor UK, said: "Since the concept bike was unveiled at the NEC last year we've been desperate to show off the new model to the public and are pleased to have the opportunity to do so, even if it's a pre-production example."

The Ace Cafe "reflects the same core elements of excitement and individualism which lies at the heart of the new VMAX", Mr Belton added.

As well as the new motorcycle, those attending the event on Madeira Drive will be able to view some of the manufacturer's other motorcycles on is Thundertruck.

Yamaha recently announced that the first stock of its YBR125 Custom bike had arrived in the UK.

As with its other scooters and 125cc motorbikes, the bike is available with free or subsidized motorbike insurance until the middle of September.

It is expected to be priced at £1,999.
