Yamaha's profilation of this bike
Incomparable fit and finish the Star Family is famous for, with classic chopper styling and, better still, the price tag closer to most bikes half its size. The V Star® 1100 Custom comes with all the chrome-plated, teardrop-tanked, low-riding, piston-pounding appeal of other V-twin mega-cruisers, but for literally thousands of dollars less.
