I have owned my V65 Sabre since new and it has been a problem free bike for me, just requiring routine servicing. More than 20 years later the bike runs very strong and has more than enough power. The Sabre is a nice sport tourer just add some soft bags and or a tank bag. I´m still amazed at how unknown this bike is compared to its counterpart the V65 Magna and the Sabre has five more HP and is a better handling machine.
