Who the hell is this guy talking all this smack about POS Porshe and checking out guys with muscle shirts! What the hell do you drive, a stock Vette oh and let me guess you ride your son's pocket rocket. It seems like all you do is get a chance to make fun of other peoples rides and you sound like a flammer when you check out guys and their muscles. You want muscles? Go to a getlemans club and grab all you can eat...Flammer!

LOL, it was a joke... I wasn't checking him out, it was obvious he was wearing a muscle shirt in the pic. Settle down, Beavis.

Great pics! I especially like those black wheels.

Cool bike, too. What kind is it? I can't tell from that side. I used to be "up" on all the brands, but I've been out of the bike scene for a couple years now and don't recognize them as easily anymore.

Stanley will be getting bad marks on his report card under "plays well with others."

The Bike is a Yamaha V-Star,looks pretty cool and at $5899 MSRP it was a steal.
I'm most likely going to trade it in soon for a DUCATI or this new Yamaha Road Star Warrior that came out,that is one mean bike!

Boots? are you kidding "fella"?!

First of all i'm not gonna wear boots it's not 1988,secondly i'm not a gay cowboy,and most importantly i live in Los Angeles,it was 105 fahrenheit that day,if i was wearing boots that day after riding the bike,and came home,took them off,i'm pretty sure my two cats and my Dog would have droped dead on the floor....

Well, d@mn!! I was going to ask if it was a V-Star, but then decided to play it safe and just ask what it was! I test drove an 1100 V-Star a few years ago, and loved it!! Love that driveshaft, instead of a chain. Somehow a Suzuki Katana ended up coming home with me instead though. I shoulda stuck with the V-Star! It was much more comfortable!

Didn't mean to hi-jack your thread, man! Your pics look great.

Oh and BTW, sometimes you just have to overlook Stanley. As you can imagine, he's made a lot of "friends" here with his "winsome" personality in the just the few short days he's been here.

Hey Buddy,

Katanas are nice.....i like them....i love the V-star it is a great bike,for the money,how ever i got my heart set either on the Roadstar Warior or a Ducati 998 or 999 we'll see they are a bit pricey

And i don't mind anyones comments,to me here everyone can only be a friend nothing else.
