    44 crystal ave Derry Cycle is selling a 2009 Yamaha V-Star 950 (Model # XVS95YR) in red with only 2,081mis on the odometer. The Star 950 is a very newly designed model for Yamaha and it uses the extremely smooth and powerful new 950cc engine with the "Pent Roof" combustion chamber. These motors are absolutely fantastic and literally blow away any of the other 750-800-900cc bikes from the other Japanese manufacturers, and the 883-XXXX motors in the Harley Sportsters.

Yamaha Named Official Motorcycle Of Road America

Thu, 02 May 2013

The economic downturn hit the motorcycle world particularly hard, as many factory-backed road racing efforts closed shop. The decision, while unfortunate, isn’t hard to understand, as racing at the highest levels isn’t cheap, and a factory involvement means added pressure to succeed, which ultimately means spending more money to do so. Through it all, however, Yamaha has remained involved with the sport, fielding factory teams and sponsoring various riding schools and even racetracks.

Thu, 11 Apr 2013
