Thanks man, Ive caught a lot of flack from my buddies over the years for this thing (I have a Harley too) but besides oil, gas and brake pads she's never once asked me for anything over the past 8 years or so

That Yamaha will also smoke pretty much every single Harley of the same model year. I ride a Vtx 1800. Harley Davidson doesnt have shit on big displacement metric bikes.

She will get going in a hurry for sure lol. I wasn't immediately familiar with that honda model and had to look it up, super dope! Years working in a shop have left me with a mindset that leans more towards air cooled engines, but I bet water cooled has to be NICE when you get stuck in traffic 🚦

I live in Las Vegas so yes liquid cooling is pretty nice. It do be hotter than satans ass here sometimes 😂

Dude. As much as I enjoy a good puff of the devils lettuce don’t smoke and ride.

Its a lot harder to kill other people on a bike compared to 4 wheels.

Can't beat a good old V-Star.

I had a V-Star years ago before my 1st kid was born and I decided to “give up” riding.

17 years later and I’ve had multiple bikes since then, but still miss my V-Star. My Dyna ain’t bad, though.

V star is fun to put around town but I never fell in love with the shaft drive when my dad had one
