@MasterJedi, yes. From my experience some Harley owners have given me crap about owning my yamaha. Me personally I'm a motorcycle enthusiast, so I like all types of bikes. American,Japanese, Italian, British. It's all good.
I have a question, do non harley bike owners get any kind of shit from the hardcore harley fans? I'd like to know what the general consesus is. Because if I get a Star bike or another other japanese cruiser I don't need some old fart pseudo redneck giving me crap telling me how much better harley is blah blah. It'll pay to know ahead of time.
@MasterJediKyleKatarn Harley's are beautiful no doubt, and I love Harley's. But I think everyone agrees, Metrics pound for pound are better faster and much cheaper. Love 'em both but I own a metric. I can always see a Harley in my rear view mirror when I want too No hate mail please. 30 years and over 100k miles experience.
@gst69man I like all bikes, I was just at the Honda and Yamaha dealership a couple of weeks ago and sat on the Shadow RS and Star Raider S and Stryker. I don't care too much about racing people even though I'd get a fast bike in a heartbeat on general principle.
@MasterJediKyleKatarn anyone who thinks harleys are better than any other well-known bike manufacturer in any category is just another sad soul brainwashed by the HD culture advertising.
If someone does insinuate HD is better, ask them WHY is HD better....
@ArtoDelFunko Dunno, I didn't even know that but of course the only Star bike I like is the Raider S. The Stryker is ok but they need to lose the ugly flames on the tank on the red and blue models. Pick a different design.
I have heard different things about weather or not it is necessary to install a Jet kit. Unless you have EFI you should install one. I ran mine for a week or so before I installed it and putting the Jet Kit on definitely made a difference in how it ran.
Wenn man weiter so falsch anlassen tut , geht bald der anlasserfreilauf (Starter clutche) kaputt.
Man darf den finger vom starter knopf nicht loslassen bis der 2. zylinder über den OT springt under motor richtig rund laufen tut.

@ArtoDelFunko I already know why, it's because it's "American" and associated with coolness.

Yes, a jet kit is highly recommended. I used a dynajet jet kit.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I just got my V-Star a week ago and I was thinking about doing this. What does a jet-kit do?

@cypherus increased needle size to handle the extra air intake due the change in pipes.
