I am about to purchase my first vstar 1100, I have had a dozen or so bikes over years but this is my first Yamaha, 1: I have a few questions, I hear the oil is a pain to change is it worth the cost to just install the relocation option and avoid the future hassles,2: I have short arms and I want to install risers, how high and back can I go without having to change cables and such.3:i would like the bike to be a little louder and was considering drilling out the baffles, if I do do I have to reset the carbs afterwards, 4:as I am new to Yamaha I am wondering whats better yamalube oil or synthetic, I hear yamalube is better in the long run, sorry about all the guestions, but ty for replies. Rick.
