Just bought....

#1 Unread post by havegunjoe »

A 2009 Yamaha V Star 950 last week. Finally got to ride it over the weekend as the weather turned good for awhile. I like it! It actually handles better than my 650 on the turns. Using the heel shifter will take a little getting use to and what the shifting speeds are but so-far-so-good.

Very nice, Joe. I think Yamaha does a really good job with the mid-class cruisers, probably the best out there for variety and appearance. I'm sure you're gonna love it.

Lookin' good.
