Description / Story

The Gold Standard of Cruisers "Invest in Gold. And Black." A luxurious double-page spread introducing the Yamaha Midnight Maxim, a machine so exclusive it was marketed as an investment. This "Limited Edition" model defined the early 80s with its stunning black-and-gold livery. The ad proudly details the craftsmanship: hand-welded frames, hand-painted finishes, and the revolutionary "Black Chrome" tailpipes. With a 650cc engine that boasted the firepower of a 750, this bike was the perfect blend of beauty and beast.
