2007 Yamaha V star 650 Custom Test Ride Review #1

[@bvanpetten]

Hey Luis, i enjoyed the tips you gave on your ride especially the go pro tip. i am an old rider who has been riding many different bikes over the years. In all those years I have never owned a cruiser. I have down sized the bikes I have bought over the years. I don't take long trips and found that smaller bikes are more fun. Anyway I have started looking at X star 650 videos and also Shadow 750 videos. I haven't ridden either but like that the X star is shaft drive, and mono shock rear suspension. I also prefer the look of the X star. The liquid cooling of the Shadow is nice, but something else to up keep. This is the first video I have watched of you. I wish you would would start your video with a walk around of your bike so people know what it looks like. Keep it up, and ride safe.

Like your bike man. Vstar 650 was my first bike. It is actually my only bike and will be for some time. I got it as a roller and to big bins of parts. I rebuilt it myself. It is a really easy and simple bike to fix or even to repair. I love the vstar 650. I have no complaints.

I just got a 2013 vstar 650 and i love it! I had a r3 and a monster 696, but somehow enjoy the 650 more. And no longer do i have to buy a chain or adjust it

Definitely no complaints about my 08 I do 250 miles average per ride at 45-70 mph it seems so comfortable compared to other cruiser/ bobbers I've ridden. Working on 22k miles so it's pretty reliable only leak I've had is the neutral sensor switch so far 👍

Looking to buy a bike like this thanks for the video

[@luisruiz5933]

It is a really good bike, kind of wish it had a bigger engine but still an amazing bike.

[@HemiLyfestyle]

@@luisruiz5933 yeah I'm thinking I need a liter bike but it has to be a yamaha v star

[@luisruiz5933]

@@HemiLyfestyle Yeah for my bike there is a 250cc , 650cc , 1100cc, and I think a 1300cc. I love my bike but if you have any questions I'll be glad to answer them.

Luis rejet the carbs and high flow pipes so people can here you when your next to them

[@retrorewindllc9363]

What size jets are u running, my vstar 650 even w cobra pipes still can't get past 60 mph & it's toped out at that.. thinking upping jets will do it but also told could be valve clearance outta wack.. so idk, was just curious if u went up in jet size?

[@luisruiz5933]

Wait so your v star 650 wont go past 60 mph?
