Yamaha V Star description
2006 Yamaha V Star 650 CLASSIC, Up for bid is a 2006 Yamaha V Star 650 Classic. My father was the original owner of this motorcycle before handing it over to me. He bought it brand new in 2007, and in all honesty never had a chance to ride it. He was diagnosed with a terminal illness shortly after purchasing this bike. As a result, was not able to ride. I got the bike from him in May 2009, and have had it ever since. I made sure to take care of the bike, consistently bringing it in for regular oil changes and services when needed. The odometer reads 5,845 miles as of 08/15/2013. I got out and rode this bike a little bit here and there, but don't get out as much as I'd like to. I would much rather someone else get better use out of it because it is a beautiful bike. The V Star 650 Classic is powered by a 649 cc (40 cubic inch) V-twin engine that is fed by two Mikuni 28mm carburetors. Fuel comes from a 4.2 gallon tank which provides about as much range that most folks would find comfortable. Sitting on top of the tank is the typical chrome bezel which houses the speedometer, trip meter and indicator lights (check engine, neutral indicator, high beam and turn signals). Power goes through a five speed gearbox and is sent to the rear wheel by shaft drive. Tube-type tires roll on spoked rims while a single 298mm front disc and rear drum brakes provide the stopping power. The V Star 650 Classic is a great example of a bike that can fit many roles for a varied group of riders. First off, it is simply a nice looking bike with lines and curves that are (in my opinion) some of the best in the business there is no mistaking a V Star. The bikes extremely good balance and 545 pounds of dry weight make it an ideal choice for any type of rider. The V Star 650 Classic has enough weight to it that it will demand proper riding technique while its good balance will make it docile enough for even the newest rider. The added benefit is that it has enough power that a rider wont grow tired of it in six months and then feel the need to trade up right away. Speaking of power, the bike doesnt have gobs of whiplash-inducing power at its disposal, but it has enough to make it a good all around cruising and commuting machine. It is a good candidate for and responds nicely to upgrades such as carburetor rejetting, exhaust upgrades and some changes to the air intake. I used to average about forty-eight to fifty miles per gallon on the highway and in the low forties around town, so one should conservatively plan on 130 to 165 mile trips before the engine starts to buck. In all of the time that I owned mine, I heard many folks say No way! when I told them it was only a 650cc bike, and were blown away by the low mileage and great condition it is in.

Yamaha MT-10 SP Project Bike - Update 1
Thu, 26 Jan 2023Everythings installed and initial impressions. It’s been about a month since we introduced Motorcycle.com’s 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP semi-long-term project bike. In case you forgot the premise of this whole thing, Yamaha offered us the opportunity to hang on to an MT-10 SP for an extended period of time, and since I have a soft spot for the bike, I decided to give it some tasteful upgrades to address some key weaknesses while also unleashing some trapped potential.
