Been riding over 30yrs best bike I’ve ever owned , Yamaha should have never stopped making them

I just bought a beautiful 2007 v star 1300. I love it! Thanks for your review.

Have one and STILL love it!

I just cracked 61,000 miles on my 2016 V Star 1300. It had .2 miles on it when I bought it. I've toured that 1300 Tourer all over North America. I've been pulling a Mini Mate with it this summer. Brilliant performance out of it. Very well pleased. I would have bought another on if they still made it. 4.4 gallons is the effective fuel tank on the 2016. The mostI've ever gotten out of thar was 229.4 miles. 42 MPG is my normal with a heavy throttle when I'm riding in eastern NC close to the ocean. In the mountains liaded for a 60 day trip I have pulled 51-52 MPG out of it regularly.

I made a trip with a couple of friends from Florida to Grand Canyon and what you said about passing another on 5th gear response it is absolutely awesome. During the pass over Muley Point the road was very rough and Dugway road the suspension worked perfectly fine, missed the dark side tire as I have on the Shadow's rear tire to experience on the mountains for curves and turns. What I like the most is the comfortable seat and handle bar. Expecting to replace the spark plugs for Iridium and see its behavior on the next ride. Love the Yamaha 1300 V Star

I got a 2007 1300 V-Star Raven with 4,000 miles on it for $3,200 a month ago and Love It !!!!! I have never driven a Crusier" Hog"before. I actually like it better than my Honda Goldwing..... Go Yamaha !!!!!

Proud owner of first year 2007 inception, changed out original cans for black cobra 2into1 pipe and power commander. Still love it in 2022. And it’s a good unique looking cruiser…looks batmobile like to me. You did a good fair review on it.

I'm 5'8" I swapped out the handle bars with a Royal Star Deluxe - Much better. Felt like I was reaching too far forward before that. Much more comfortable reach and riding position. Didn't have to swap any cables. I did have to purchase new grips. Swapped out the OEM seat for a Mustang seat with the driver back rest! Highly recommend. Also, purchased a COBRA slip on and removed the baffle. OEM exhaust sounded like George Jetson's space ship. I love it!

I've rung up all the speedometer had to offer before. Still super smooth and stable.

I have one, I like it, feels about as capable as my Yamaha Stratoliner 1900, but its easier to push around and slow speed maneuver partly due to the lower seat, Stratoliner is 820-840 lbs, the Vstar is like a vacation is some ways, but I'd like thicker handle bars like on my Stratoliner

I have had mine at almost 100 no issues.

I have a 2012 1300 love it.

The 1100 is slower than the 950. Great channel!

I will just say that I find the brakes to be as good as any I’ve ever had. And the stock touring bags are basically second to none in ease of use. Bike handles 2up well. Have to feel back there at times to make sure I didn’t forget my wife. The only thing that I’ve found impossible to cure on this bike is helmet buffeting with the windshield on, no matter how tall it is, or with fork deflectors. So I ride without.

Was wondering how you get from the clock to the mileage...

The ‎1,854 cc V-Twin is a push-rod motor, much different than the other V-Stars. I have owned a Roadliner, a Bolt and just got a 1300 touring. The Roadliner's 1,854 Twin, is a different animal all together.

7:30 I have this exact bike. I get 210 miles easily out of each tank. You can go 40 miles with the low fuel light on.

I have the 1300 and am thinking about a stratoliner or raider. Have you ridden them since this video? how do they compare power and handling wise?

I went with the Royal Star instead of the V Star. I didn't like clunky gearing and second gear is too tall for low speed. It did have plenty of power and rode smooth on the highway, so if those other things don't bother you then it's a great value for what you get.

Low speed jerkiness = loose drive belt?

I'm a little over 50 years old with a 30" inseam. Haven't ridden in a decade. Last rode a 1978 Honda CB750K. Looking between A Vulcan 900, 1500 and V-Star 1300. Concerned about the size and cornering with the 1300. Do you think this bike might be OK or would the Vulcan 900 be better size for my experience and height?

I love my 2015 1300cc v-star, 85mph jumpy? I disagree buddy 85mph it’s my v-star’s sweet spot, my son n I go on rides he’s got a Raider we are in love with Yamahas

How do you compare this motorcycle with virago xv1100?

Would you ever consider in buying another buell. Miss the buell vids.

looking to upgrade my v star 650 to a 1300 do u say this would be worthy of a upgrade

Not 1800 but 1600 0r 1700 Road Star

The best thing is no-one wants to steal my yamaha 1300 tourer.

The 1800 is the roadstar

No 900..950cc

Bro your just babbling
