Yamaha Road Star description

Beautiful 2006 Yamaha Road Star 1700Trike This is by far 1 of the nicest trikes around. The bike runs smooth as silk and is very easy to drive. The carbs have been done with a new carb kit and the exhaust is a custom made 2 into one so the bike has a very nice rumble to it. It sounds awesome. The trike has lots of chrome components with highway pegs, brand new studded saddle bags and of course the sissy seat for your passenger. The color is pearl white and we added 2 luggage racks on the rear fenders. The rear lamps were designed to match the factory lamps. It has a windshield with double spots up front with a separate switch. The bike is belt driven and runs very smooth. Custom grips make it very easy to control. The rear wheel are chrome and the tires have 65mis on them.

In 2005-2006, the fatal crashes per 10,000 registered motorcycles without antilock brakes was 6.6.

It was actually the thirty second kick – thirty of those spent frothing up a heady sweat until I realised the main fuel pipe was kinked to buggery.
