Yamaha V Star 950 20172017 Yamaha V Star 950 specifications, pictures, reviews and rating |
| Yamaha's profilation of this bike |
| The carefully designed chassis contributes to an exceptionally light feeling riders are sure to appreciate. The double-cradle steel main frame offers an ideal rigidity balance in the longitudinal, lateral, and torsional directions, using the engine as a stressed member. With the engine mounting position slightly forward for optimum front-rear weight distribution and its large, 18-inch front wheel, V Star 950 has outstanding handling performance. |
