I own this bike. 2004. Has 3100 miles. I love it more than any bike I have ever owned.
I just got a 2004 26k. Unbelievable bike. 👍
i've watched so many of these i feel like i could drive to that church myself lol
Took an 03 in the same color out for a test ride. Found this video after doing some post test ride home work and the review sealed the deal for me! Glad I took the bike out. Looks great in my driveway!
Was this around midwest Washington?
I've got the exact same bike with Vance & Hines pipes - love everything about it. Great bike for short riders. Low center of gravity, handles smooth as butter.
Thanks for your reviews Sean I love them! Your honest and real unlike alot of others. Where you live is an awesome riding area and god has blessed you with your job. I like how you always gun it on that one strip after turning around at that church so everyone can get an idea of the torque and acceleration of the bike.
I’ve been looking at a 06 v star with 13k miles wanted to do a lot of research before buying and I will say that this video might have sealed the deal for me
Thanks for your review Sean and your videos are superb. You clearly enjoy your work and it shows in the way you discuss the motorcycle that you are test driving. I appreciate your style and expertise.
I had a 2005 V Star 1100 Classic years ago. I put 17,500 miles on it in one season. I couldn’t stay off of it. It was my first bike after a 25 year layoff, and it was the perfect re-starter bike. It wasn’t too heavy, so it was very forgiving after making a mistake. My only complaint about the bike was the dual carbs. They were finicky as hell. My first ride of the day was never a problem, it was later in the day when I’d stop for coffee or a bite. It didn’t like those 20-30 minute rests. Once I was back on the road it would always run choppy for about 10 minutes. I never figured out why it did that, and I never bought another car edition bike. Since then I’ve owned 3 Vulcans, a 1500 Classic, a 1600 Nomad, and my current bike, a 1600 Classic, all fuel injected. It’s very unfortunate Yamaha stopped making midsize V Twins. I’ve loved all of my Vulcans, and none them ever left me stranded or gave me a problem, but I think Yamaha used to put out a better cruiser. The fit and finish was the best among the metrics. I almost bought a 2013 Roadliner. That thing was a work of art.
I have a 03 vstar 1100 classic the only thing I don’t like about it the gas tank is to small and no gas gauge also typical ever spring have to resinke the carbs outher than that it is a awesome bike nice video
just bought one. Took the windshield off, then put it back on. lol. great bike! had a harley, got rid of it and now much less maintainance and better ride. great looks too. thanks for the video!
nice thanks for watching
Adam Kadmon you do know the valves aren't the only thing I was mentioning in general, and I have the oil filter relocater on mine. So if you don't like what I am writing don't read it and don't respond.
Adam Kadmon
With the money he saved he has the mechanic take care of everything instead of getting dirty. We've had 4 of these 1100 and never had a problem, checked yes, but always just fine.
Next time I see you on the side of the road or in your driveway working on yiur bike we'll wave.
beep..beep...
Good review but your shifting is so painful
I gave my son one that I bought new in 2002, My only real problem with it is it BADLY needs another gear. I was hoping you would mention that.
Tom Cecil - I thought the same thing & figured out it was engineered perfectly, you just need to get used to it.
srk, I'm impressed. PA is beautiful this time of year, and would you have any qualms of me , after bleeding the front brake, driving it back to Arizona? Assuming the tires are good enough to make it?
no you could make it, but this bike is sold, check out my website at srkcycles.com to find another to make the trip on. i have alot of customers fly in or train in and ride the bikes back
Very nice looking bike!
Love most of your motorcycle videos but could you possibly stop some place in the middle of the Ride and do a walk around to show off the Bike ?
Hey I really like your videos! I recently moved closer(ish) to your 20. Used to live in cali, now I'm on Long Island. Once I got my license I'll check out your inventory!
cheers
eviltango me too
I just traded a 06 roadstar warrior xv1700 for a 09 vstar classic 1100. I am surprised how much I like it.
That whine in the drive train would drive me nuts.
Really? I love it on mine lol! Only cuz it almost sounds like a supercharger whine which is the best kind of whine😅
Jus got me one for my first bike an love it
Hey man, how's the bike treating you? Would you really recommend it as a first bike? Im 5'5" 147 lbs.
Would it be too much for me?
@@AcerTheRed I’m 5’8 130 lbs your good . I got a Harley now

Hi Sean, great review. I'm in the UK - Wales - looking to spend between £5000/£6000 in time for next summer for that same make and model Yam. Hoping to spend less... As a bike dealer, yourself, what would be your cut off price for a good, reliable machine - Yamaha xvs 1100 classic. Cheers 👍
Just bought an 05 with trike kit
Do I need a job to get a motorcycle
We have nothing like this in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 can we still get the best price
Tons of them here in Saskatchewan...
I hate the filters in the pictures. Frustrating to finally see the bike and it’s no where near the pictures online! Wish they would just be honest.
Is it heavy?
Yes.
At Canada and Mexico city
Do these have a lower rpm at 70 mph vs the 650 vstar?
I’m sure they do. The v star 650 def needs another gear lol. They are screaming at 70
WITH A WINDSHIELD !!!!
Dude I live in pa too
I know exactly where you are
I am getting 2003. Yamaha v star and it needs a coil that what was tolled
Chrome it out
I bought my "03 new and love it. I had to make brackets to straighten the windshield up so the wind wouldn't hit the top of my helmet and try to lift it off my head. I have the rootbeer over tan colour and have cut out the rear pipe baffles to increase the "grumble" from that beautiful engine. I made a front fender trim to dress it up and also made my own highway lights bar so I don't have the same stuff other guys bolt on to their bikes. This bike is all the motorcycle I need. LOVE IT!
Hey im not sure you still read these comments, just in case you do, im looking exactly at this bike, same model, year etc, i took it for a test drive, the pull just dies as the bike revs up a little, dealer said its because of the cold (40F give or take and the bike was standing for about 3 weeks) any suggestion as to what might be wrong? i drove it for about 5 miles, something just felt off, like the power was not there, I was thinking maybe people messed around with the choker to much... im no mechanic tho, what do you think, let it be or is it worth taking the risk (financially the cost is not consequential, in fact the bike is a fantastic deal, low milage, and low price).
So very nice thanks….. finished my military career at Indiantown Gap…. 82 back then I road a Custom 750 Honda, I’m now looking for a Late model Gold wing. Happy God has Gifted me with my senior years. Would like to stay in touch with You, in that perhaps You might help me find that Goldwing. Thanks very much SdDriver Ak.
Being 6'7 I would like to see more side shots of you on the bike. Thanks.
It'll be a bit small. My buddy got on mine and it was a bit too small. Hes 6'5 and 286lbs
would it be a good first bike
I got one for a second bike. I would say somewhere between maybe and no for a first one.
I got it for my first bike.
N Yo same got mine two weeks ago and it’s a bobber with straight pipe it’s amazing
How is for taller people? I'm about 6 ft
I think the ride and walkaround is great bussiness plan. Defiantly helps sell the bike. Honesty goes a long way to.
Ямаха
one of these or a Kawasaki Vulcan? I'm looking for my first bike.
I'm the same height but 280, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!
I was hoping that would be the case lol. Love the videos man, keep them coming! Thanks!

vstar makes awesome bikes!
Those pipes sound amazing! What brand and model?
He said cobra in the beginning, those are great but check out crusher exhaust
I have the cobra slash cuts and the carbs been re jetted with Vance & Hines jet kit . I love the sound.
Video would be great if it wasn't for the annoying whining noise coming from behind the bars... seems to be on each video
