Thanks for the video series on your Yamaha 1300 I just put Heritage Softail handlebars on my 2007 Yamaha 1300 and I love them.

What did you do for grips. The cheap rubber grips over the factory throttle.sleeves has worked for a few years, but the 8 dollars has paid for itself and I think I am ready to splurge. I am looking at avon metric cruiser grips to work with the cables, what did you do?

@vsorrick do you recall if there were metric cruiser specific to work with yamaha throttle cables, or do you think harley ones would work?

@@MNMoto I just ordered ones for the yamaha, I dont know if a harley throttle control would work with metric controls. New grips come throttle control built in.

Hope you keep the v star man! I was glad to have found another Moto vlog featuring another 1300.

Thanks Ethan. I have decided to keep it for a while longer and am planning on replacing the front tire and doing some other maintenance items this year. I am planning some videos to start a season two soon. Thanks for the encouragement.

@@MNMoto glad to hear it man. I have a personal belief there are too few v star vloggers out there for it's rider base, but don't let that constrain you either. I'm studying your handlebar install video, among other accessories like your forward control set, which is helping guide me and my v star in the direction I want to see it as well.

Hey my v star 650 had the same issue in 4th to 5th i put a Barnett clutch and heavier springs it did the same it turns out there is a adjustment screw under on of the side covers it did the trick it takes 10 min or so when i took the old clutch out it looked worn but it had a good amount of clutch pad left keep up the videos hope this helps

That is why I got this bike it is the best value for a big dude. I have put seat time on harley touring bikes, and that is what my buddys ride, but this has power and comfort fir my size that I would have to drop 10-15K more for to have a better harley than my vstar.

Thanks for the video and information. And what kinda camera you using ? I can barely hear the wind and pipes. I'm actually looking for a good camera like this.

I use a gopro hero 7 silver with a Sony voice recorder and Sony microphone in my helmet. I have a few videos of how they are set up on the helmet. I sync them on a video editor before I cut and splice my videos.

@@MNMoto yeah ok and thanks for that information.. and about how much did all that cost ?🤔..I was actually looking at a few, but none were in my budget.

What’s a good year on the 1300?

@MNMoto 2 жыл бұрын

All of them. Not many changes. In 2009 they improved the pullback on the handle bars a little, otherwise they are super reliable.

So you want to own a good bike but you don’t want to invest in it for maintenance. 600 dollars for a maintenance is nothing on a motorycle dude. And if you get an even bigger bike do you think it will be cheaper? :)) the more you abuse any bike the more you need to spend for maintenance. Better sell the bike and quit this hobby.
