2008 Yamaha V-Star 650 Silverado Canadian Edition
The 2008 MY V-Star 650 Silverado Canadian Edition brings forth the same retro cream and black two-tone livery, with black engine accents to make everything look even more exquisite. This machine is a great first step for new riders, as the bike packs a solid punch which makes it quite fun without being intimidating. Still, some riders will feel so good on it that they'll never think about getting a bigger one.
And with plenty of room, despite the low seat, chances to outgrow it are rather low. Add in the touring-ready saddlebags, windscreen and the extra comfort of the passenger backrest and prepare for an exhilarating ride, both across the city and across the state.
