my V star 250

[bikie2]

the v star and virago are completely different i had the two side by side and the v star looked better and styling was way better that;s why i brought the v star

[bikie2]

I just brought a 250 V star with heaps of chrome on it, i am going to fit a digital fuel gauge very easy to do

[MeatWhistle44]

if you liked this bike have a look at the hyosung aquila gv250

[mcfartard]

lol get a vtx 1800

[DangerZONEpixel]

this is not a v-star dumb cunt

[thespeez]

@DangerZONEpixel - Yamaha renamed the Virago 250 as the V-star 250 a few years back!

[stiehler1117]

These are beautiful bikes. I have a rebel 250, but I like the styling of the yamaha better

[blockedbutADDED]

[itsmacintosh]

HOw does it do on the high way?

[sunshinepoison]

well... I have had to get a lilcense plate bracket because my plate was tearing apart so I guess I can keep up with the traffic!

[StephanieClifford]

I call mine "Gary" because of the stupid looking rear view mirrors, the look like Gary the snail eyes from Spongebob to me.

The rest of the bike is fantabulous.

[sunshinepoison]

LOL so true but wait til you drop it then you change the name(hopefully you don't do it) the one I ride is named valahala cherry

[blazehurst]

yea i was wantin a Vulcan 500 but i got a rebel instead

[sunshinepoison]

I am now wanting to upgrade to the 2009 Vulcan 500........

[blazehurst]

what kind of pipes do you have on it

[sunshinepoison]

stock pipes at this time

[cjhmarine]

the guy at the dealership said it has a small reserve tank inside the main tank and when u feal bike running out you can flip petcock to reserve tank witch will get you to next gas station . it was a 2008

[sunshinepoison]

keep loooking & keep filling

[sunshinepoison]

color is supposed to stay the same thank goodness it is a sweet color for a sweet bike! I am not sure about the fuel injection part all I know is I can not wait for riding weather around here! the only problem I see now with it is not much room for saddle bags or storage I have to rely on the V Star 1100 Classic to help me there... only when saddle bags are put on as extra!

[sunshinepoison]

hell with the fuel gauge if I am at 120 miles on a full tank when started I know to refuel but I don't mind topping off whenever I can I only ran out of gas once & glad so I know how to work the reserve switch

[GranFury440]

I know alotta people might laugh but so far this yamaha 250 is my dream bike. It's a beautiful little motorcycle that can cruise anywhere even the freeways and get unbeatable gas mileage. I hope they don't change the color it really sets it off nicely. I wonder Suzuki has a 250cc just like this one except it's a single cylinder with fuel injection which is more reliable?

[sunshinepoison]

no color plans in the works next years model is supposed to be the same black cherry (vahalla) red! I love my bike but am kinda of interested in the Kawaski Vulcan has same color scheme & I fit on it nicely!

[thespeez]

@GranFury440 - Suzuki has two 250cc single-cylinder motorcycles. The GZ250 is a cruiser and is still carbureted. It sells for $2999. The TU250X is a standard UJM, is fuel-injected and sells for $3999. I don't know how reliable they are. Regardless, you're probably better off with the Yamaha with regards to top end as the two Suzukis will likely give out on you power-wise before the Yamaha. The Yamaha may also give better fuel mileage, but I'm unsure.

[GranFury440]

I wanna get rid of my yamaha C3 and get that! I'm short so this 27 in seat height bike would be perfect for me then I wouldn't have to be tailgated at 45 miles per hour top speed anymore.

[sunshinepoison]

for def I have topped it out at 85mph but that was to keep up with V star 1100 classic!

[sunshinepoison]

not that I have noticed in fact the faster it gets the better!

[poisonsunshine]

Did you get the bike yet?

[erinandcompany]

Can I have one too? I promise I'll wear a helmet, even though there's nothin' in there to hurt, lol.

[poisonsunshine]

Its on its way, you should get it within the week

[poisonsunshine]

finally got some film of you riding, too bad we couldnt film when we are going 95mph lol

[sunshinepoison]

oops I am sorry the v star may top 90 at the most! did you mean 85?
