1999 Yamaha V-Star 1100 review from United States of America
"I'd still buy it if I had it to do over"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Electric fuel pump had to be replaced at 1500 miles.
The seat is a killer after 45 minutes or so of riding. I have to pull over & get off for a spell. My G/f says the same about the passenger seat. Thinking of jell seats.
General comments?
Other than those things, I love the bike. It has ample power & I'll run right with the big Harley's or any other bike & feel proud.
