I pulled the trigger

[slowrollwv]

Well folks I did it. I pulled the trigger on a new ride. It is a 2014 V Star 1300 Tour. And from what @Puc says it didn't happen without pics so here it is.

I got home with it at 6:30 this evening and my oldest son got on and said that he was going to take it home and bring it back tomorrow. That is OK with me cause he will be riding it more than I will. I still like the RSV.

Very nice enjoy!

Looking good...light and nimble. A little different than the RSV, and just as fun. Good choice.

That big square thing in the dash is a Zumo 665 and the bike came stock with it. The trunk is aftermarket, I am not sure who makes it but I will try to find out.

Wish I still had my V Star 1300.......................:crying:

That would be appreciated as I'm looking for a trunk for my Road Star and that one is quite different from what I've found so far.

[Sylvester]

I think that is an awesome bike. Less top weight and still a touring bike. I need to start looking for one down south.

[cecdoo]

Very Nice!!! I like the color too:thumbsup:

Nice ride Slowroll!

 

After Yammy stopped making the RSTD, they came out with that bike. Did they ever put a cruise control on it?

No cruise control but it does have a throttle lock.

Toothpics or tie wraps?

 

So Roller,, is that Zuma the sound system/gps or is it something similar to some of these new scoots who have something like that on em that do everything except put gas in the bike at the gas station while your using the boys room?

Tip and I test rode/demoed a new water cooled HD Ultra a couple years ago with something like that on it.. We took off, come to a corner, voice from that box say's "turn left" - we did,, leaned back and told Tippy the dealership must have programmed the demo course into that thang. Says turn right - we did. Says turn left - we did.. 1/2 hour later we came to a dirt road intersection, thang says "turn right" (onto a old two track) - I stopped and told the thang "if we're going down there I need to shoot home and get my tent :missingtooth:".. Back tracked to the HD shop, guy was MAD - thought we stole his bike!! Told him what happend - he looked at the other guys handling their Demo Days - they started laughing and then he told me they tried and tried to figure out how to shut that thang off cause they KNEW someone would make the mistake of confusing it's instructions with the paint they had put on the road for "demo markers"...

Puc it is a standard Zumo 665. The fairing was molded to fit it in. It also works well with the 660 also. I put mine in it and turned the volume up. Great set of speakers. There is a controle on the left handlebar to control the unit. Now have to get an XM service or load a lot of tunes on the MP3 disc.
