The V Star Trio
Buying a real tourer, custom or cruiser motorcycle has nothing to do with the bike’s cylinder capacity; this is the first thing that will enter your mind when checking out the latest V Star line up of Yamaha Motorcycles, especially the amazing 650cc trio which consists of the V Star Classic, V Star Custom and V Star Silverado.
This trio of Stars is built with fuel efficiency, reliability and comfort in mind which makes it understandable why women riders and beginners love them so much. No matter what model of the V Star 650 you choose, V Star’s air-cooled V twin SOHC four-stroke engine paired with a five speed manual transmission can go 49 miles with just a single gallon of gas in the tank. When you consider the fact that this V-Star trio has a fuel tank capacity of 4.2 gallons, you would know that gas stops wouldn’t become much of a worry.
When it comes to seat height, female riders wouldn’t have much worry either. The latest Yamaha V Star Custom has a seat height of 27.4 inches above the ground while the Classic and the Silverado have a seat height of 27.9 inches. The low seat height and the bike’s “mild manners” are what make it a great and approachable beginner bike.
