Well, Louis, you saw that issue before I did. Sheesh.

Two models in US, '93 (Red) and '94 (Blue). Would I buy one again, YES. As
for the Vmax vs. GTS purchase, IMHO those are two very different types of
bikes, if you want drag racing/straight line/raw power go with the Vmax, if
you want a SPORT-touring/all-around bike definitely get the GTS.

Man, you're looking at chalk and cheese. I'd pick the GTS any day, but

I own both a GTS and a Vmax. Love 'em both. But they're two
VASTLY different bikes. I'd say that your choice should be
based upon the kind of riding you like to do. The GTS is
much better at touring (and I've toured on both), better in
the twisties even after you add a LOT of parts to the Vma

I'd be real interested in knowing if you can get one still in a box, as I

under 90', with the best posted stops at: 87' & one at 89'..

Thanks for all the answers I got so far. It sounds like the GTS is better by
a narrow margin. The margin would be wider if I could soup up the gts a
little.
Anyone tried putting on a turbo?. With the EFI system it should be easier to
get the mixture right?
I would like more power than I have now,
Oh no not the turbo, junk the efi, what kind of tires, oil do you recommend
