New Yamaha Bikes : 2012 VMAX Hyper Modified Marcus Walz

Yamaha VMAX Hyper Modified Marcus Walz

Hardcore to the VMAX

Marcus bought his first bike, a Yamaha RD350LC, at the age of 18. He knows what makes Yamaha unique. After bowing out of Moto Cross in 1992, following a serious accident, Marcus invested the proceeds from the sale of his machine into a set of tools and a bike-lift. He set up a workshop in a converted barn and established Walz Hardcore Cycles.

The German invented and developed the world-famous Drag Style frame, a new kind of custom bike. Europe's most successful bike builder, his creations have appeared on 60 magazine covers and in more than 600 magazine articles and Marcus was the 2006 winner of the Discovery Channel's hit show Bike Build-Off. Walz Hardcore Cycles has retail outlets selling bikes and apparel across Europe.
