Hey fellow riders,i'm new to this,i've noticed alot of talk & info about Suzukis

Is there anyone out there that rides a Yamaha? I've got a 650 V-star that I am selling that I have just had a ball on for the last two yrs. I'm in the mitz of getting my Royal star tour deluxe,does anyone have any pros or cons on the Royal star? let me know.

Welcome Robley.
I like the V-star 650. I have a friend who rides with me all the time and he's one of the ones I don't mind riding with that has the 650. I just think it's a little small for me.
I really like the royal star. It mostly comes down to personal preference most manufacturers put out a good product nowadays.

By the way, I like your avatar!

Never took one for a spin, but the only con if I can think of was the sticker price. Maybe you can find a 06 laying around in a crate for a discounted rate.

Good Luck!!!

Thanks guys, I have actually found a couple 2006s still created & the dealer has them a little more than $3000. off retail. I thought that was pretty good
