Yamaha V-Star 1100 Custom | My 1st Motorcycle 

Ive been riding the streets over 30 years, I know what you mean about floor boards. My 1100 is the first bike I ever owned that had them. Took me a week to get used to them and now I love them. Dont let it fool ya about corners either, the boards are designed on a hinge and its fun as hell those times when you get deep in a corner and scrape them.

I like how you have a planned maintenance schedule or should I say, controlled routine tender care for your investments. Thanks for sharing your passion. 😮

Got the same bike for my first one as well, custom just means you get the smaller thinner tire in the front and the smaller fender for it, the classic gets you the big fat tire up front.

Sounds really nice

Nice. Love my vStar.

Great video man, needs more views I say.

Yeah, they are some big ass bikes. I went from a Kawasaki ninja 600 to a 2007 classic 1100, and that Yamaha scares me more than the ninja ever did. It’s so damn heavy for one thing. You feel the weight at low speeds. Still, I love ❤️ my bike!

that was such a heartwarming laugh in the background

She sounds healthy bro. Flap your wings and fly.😊

That replacement oil filter is real good investment

Not really wanting a bike for speed but I was thinking about starting off on this one. I know it’s powerful but like you said I kind of want to grow into it. I master things rather quickly and eventually would like to run it down a track. I think 1100 would be a lot better than a 650.

As it is about three and a half years since you filmed this, I wonder if you still have your 1100. I hope so, because that's the only bike you'll ever need for the rest of your life. And, it will last that long if you keep after it. I love my V Star and it's been super reliable. Your bike is a real beauty, Enjoy !

When you did the exhaust and intake, did you rejet?

Are you still Riding this Bike or did you trade up for a bigger one

Will the cbi box from a 2007 650 classic fit a 2007 1100

Hi! I’m from Argentina. Do you think that carbureted engines are a problem? In order to use not daily? Congrats for your bike

About the passenger seat issue! You can get a child-saftey seat customized towards your liking or needs. Everything is always customizable bro.

Did you sell it?

hey where abouts in mn do you live?

How is it so far with 1100 dargstar?

I see this vid is a few years old so I had a question: how has the carburetor been treating you? I see the synchronization intervals are every 4k miles, so I'm just mentally prepping for that haha.

Don't know much about bikes, but that's pretty sexy!

Going to check out a 2003 1100 v star tomorrow. My second bike but haven't ridden in 25 years. Very eager to ride again. Me too, also wanted to grow into it. Any more suggestions for me.

What oil are you using in the summer the weight of oil

That nice bike. Some one really take care of it got lot extra. In that bike you need that oil filter out side it also work as oil cooler that one good thing I have it on mine you dont want have go thir all it take to change the oil in bike oil change should fast and simple where change more often special on bike because air cool and oil get hot and need change more often then car.

Be careful. Enjoy it I will

What year is this bike?

Where did you find that seat

I like that carburetor what's the name of how much does it cost and where can I get one

not to get too personal but... how big are you? I'm 5 8 and 170 lbs wondering if this is excessive for me. NICE BIKE MAN 😎

hi nj nice ride.i have a 04 vstar 1100 classic the differences are not much i have the large Memphis shield and larger old school fenders.i got mine back in 012 when gas was 4+ bucks a gallon.it had been about 25 years since i had a road bike.i picked the vstar because of its good reviews on dependability,low maintenance cost.i just got a set of mustang seats about a week ago,the stock seat was killing my ars for 4 years.if your going to have a passenger do them and yourself a favor and get a set of mustang seats. the lady's will love you for it.well as it is said keep the rubber side down brother and from a old biker to a young one ride safe,ride smart and be courteous on the road . there's enough asshole bikers out there that give us good bikers a bad name .😎

You crack me up about the seat, that seat will get you laid by any girl you give a ride.

I just purchase a 2009 1100 custom, it's my first cruiser switching from sport bike. how low and fast can you go through a corner with these kind of bike. I like the intake and I think I'll get one too with those extra lighting.
