Yamaha Announces 2016 Viking Lineup
2016 Viking VI and Viking VI EPS Key Features and Specs
Key Features for 2016
- Quieter, smoother cabin: New rubber damper plates, more rigid chassis, additional sound dampening material and all-new cylinder head mount reduces vibration making for a more relaxing ride quality at all engine speeds.
- More rigid cargo box w/ integrated accessory mounts: New stiffer cargo box further reduces noise and vibration inside the cabin, while the cargo bed rails now incorporate mounting points to make adding genuine Yamaha accessories easier. Rubber cargo bed mat is standard on all models.
- Improved Convenience: Automotive-style two-stage door latches are fitted, and inside the cabin, a new parking brake warning buzzer has been added to notify the driver if the vehicle is being driven while the parking brake is engaged.
