Engine[edit | edit source]
A 81.3mm bore x 81.3mm stroke result in a displacement of just 649.0 cubic centimeters.
Drive[edit | edit source]
The bike has a 5-Speed, manual transmission. Power was moderated via the Wet multiplate.
Chassis[edit | edit source]
It came with a 100/90-19 front tire and a 170/80-15 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via Single hydraulic disc 298mm in the front and a Drum 200mm in the rear. The front suspension was a 41mm telescopic fork; 5.5 inch travel while the rear was equipped with a Single shock, adjustable preload, 3.9-in travel. The wheelbase was 63.39 inches (1610 mm) long.
2014 Yamaha V STAR 650 CUSTOM[edit | edit source]
The 2015 MY Yamaha V Star Custom may have the smallest displacement in the full-sized frame Star bike family, but it is nothing less than brilliant, following to the letter the proven Star recipe: custom-like looks, modern technology, easy-to-ride and an attention to details next to none. The chrome-embellished dual-exhausts and engine accents catch the eye from the beginning and adds a nice contrast to the metallic black paint-scheme.
The cruiser sports an air-cooled, 649cc V-twin, which may be considered small in the cruiser world, but it still has enough kick and punch to make it a great bike for the urban jungle, as well as motorway hauls, with the added bonus of a comfortable riding position thanks to the low seat-height and custom-style handlebars.
