"I want to buy a war surplus tank, can you think of any reason not to get it? I'll be using it mainly for squirrel hunting...". 
Not the ideal tool for your stated purpose. Riding a slow bike fast is more fun than riding a fast bike slow - a quote that would apply in spades in this case.
You may still want the VMAX and there may be better reasons for getting one; but if your main riding is the back road at "slower" speeds then another bike (say a 250-300cc standard or dual sport) is in order. Save the VMAX for those coffee house runs on Sunday morning.
