Vehicle Information
Yamaha V Star 650 Motorcycle - Street (1998-2016)
The Yamaha V Star 650, produced from 1998 to 2016, is a classic cruiser motorcycle known for its reliable performance and timeless styling. All models throughout this period were powered by a consistent 649cc air-cooled, SOHC, 70-degree V-twin engine, paired with a five-speed transmission and a low-maintenance shaft final drive. This robust powertrain delivered 40 horsepower and 51 Nm of torque, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride. The V Star 650 was offered in several distinct trims, including the Custom (XVS650) with its classic cruiser lines, the Classic (XVS650A) featuring a more traditional aesthetic with wider fenders and handlebars, and the touring-oriented Silverado, which added a windscreen, passenger backrest, and saddlebags for extended journeys. Despite these trim variations, the core mechanical platform remained remarkably consistent. FAQ:
