Good Points

Looks great, priced right, very low maintenance. Runs well, reliable.


Bad Points

Oil filter change somewhat of a hassle (not as bad as most people claim, takes 30 minutes tops). Lots of chromed plastic parts but they have held up well. Starter failed under warranty.


General Comments

I bought the Yamaha V Star 1100 Custom Tourer used with 6000 miles on it. Transferred the Yamaha YES warranty for $25. Bike has a lot of looks and features for the money. Dual front disc, single rear disc, and I love the driveshaft (no maintenance!). Rear tire lasted about 15,000 miles. Gets 42-44 mpg overall, all stock and will keep up with almost anything on the road. The big V-twin has plenty of torque, handles well with two riders. OK on hour trips, next bike will be a Goldwing!
