Yamaha Drag Star (V Star) XVS 1100: 1999 г. - н. вр.

V Star (Drag Star) 1100 – типичный японский литровый круизер, достойный компромисс между слабоватыми 600-800-кубовыми моделями и мощными, но дорогими и уж больно тяжелыми very big twins с полутора-, двухлитровыми моторами. Никаких технических откровений (даже охлаждение воздушное), но все гармонично и с увесистым запасом прочности.

Двигатель
Простая, надежная, без изысков и наворотов, классическая конструкция воздушного охлаждения с двумя клапанами на цилиндр. Подстать конструкции и характеристики мотора: типичный чопперный движок с увесистой тягой, но при этом – в рамках современных тенденций – с неплохим откликом на движения ручкой газа. Последнему способствует датчик положения дроссельной заслонки в карбюраторе, сигнал которого используется в работе системы зажигания.

Трансмиссия
КПП работает типично по-ямаховски – ходы великоваты, а четкость работы средненькая. Но к надежности КПП нареканий нет.

Рама и обвес
Рама типично чопперная, но свои обязанности выполняет отлично. Интересно решено оформление приборной панели – все индикаторы вписаны в табло спидометра. Сам спидометр при этом размером чуть ли не с блюдце. Но читается все очень удобно.

Подвески
Подвески по качеству работы несколько выбиваются из общего стиля – достаточно плотные, не особо склонные к пробоям. Интересное решение используется в задней подвеске – на первый взгляд, ее нет вообще, а заднее колесо жестко закреплено в раме. На самом деле это не так. Задняя подвеска – моноамортизаторная, оси качания расположены в нижнем углу треугольников подвески, а в верхнем углу крепится амортизатор, упрятанный под сиденье – как на «харлеях» линеек Softail и Touring. В целом подвески также надежны и без особых слабых мест.

Тормоза
При всей своей изящности и внешнем соответствии канонам стиля, два передних диска с двухпоршневыми скобами и один задний диск с однопоршневой скобой обеспечивают очень хорошую тормозную динамику, полностью соответствующую возможностям рамы, мотора и подвесок.

Комфорт
Сиденье, как и на любом большом круизере, имеет анатомическую форму с выраженным поясничным подпором. Само сиденье плотное ровно настолько, насколько необходимо, чтобы не терять контакт с мотоциклом. Пассажирское место тоже достаточно комфортно, хотя «благодаря» слегка скошенной форме седла в длительных поездках начинаешь сползать вперед (хотя и не так, как на 400-650-кубовых версиях). Оформление приборки и верхней траверсы сделано так, что не слепит бликами при ярком солнце. Вынос подножек, высота и угол наклона руля оптимальны для большинства водителей.

Модификации
Вариант Drag Star Classic выполнен в духе «американцев» 60-х и отличается 16-дюймовыми колесами, иными крыльями, светотехникой и металлическими кожухами перьев вилки.

2008 Yamaha V Star 1100 Review

You instinctively know a great cruiser when you see one. Retro style is even cooler when it’s combined with Star engineering, including and SOHC air-cooled V-twin and shaft drive. It’s all right here just begging for some choice personalization.

Introduction

The V Star 1100 Classic is one of America’s best cruiser values and a perennial best seller. It features an authentic air-cooled V-twin, shaft drive and styling that sure stays true to the Classic name.

This legendary V-Star 1100 Classic has an unsurpassed reputation for value and reliability thanks to its authentic air-cooled V-twin that pumps up some serious horsepower and performance, while the long and low design provides great looks. Give it a try and I bet you’ll be hooked.
 

History

In 1999 Yamaha Motor Corporation began producing the V-Star 1100, or the Dragstar 1100, as it was sold in Europe. It was introduced in two different versions, the XVS1100 and XVS1100A. The first featured a more classic style, while the second became popular by featuring a more modern style and a slightly lower seat height.

But the V Star series didn’t start life with the 1100. The model was a derivation of the 1998 V Star 650. The 1100 used a reworked version of the venerable Virago 75-degree, air-cooled V-twin which had been in use since the early 1980s.

The V Star 1100 soon saw a Star version which exploited better that reliable engine, which means that it offers better torque. The shaft-drive layout from the Virago was also carried over to the V Star 1100, but it relied on a new suspension and frame, discarding the outboard dual shocks and stressed-member engine arrangement of the Virago in favor of a single-shock and twin downtubes. At that time the midsize cruiser bike came equipped with Keihin 37 mm carburetor with throttle-position sensor used to efficiently meter fuel to the 8.3:1, oversquare engine

The V Star gathered a huge following early on, which lead to the addition in 2000 of the Classic model. As opposed to the Custom’s bobbed rear fender, exposed forks, 110 front tire and other custom touches, the Classic had longer, more voluptuous fenders, floorboards, beefy fork covers and a 130 front tire. Later a Silverado model, which included such amenities as a windscreen, sissy bar, soft sidebags and the like, was introduced as an upscale model.

Being bulletproof built and implementing a reliable engine, this bike only needed minor updates in order to keep being successfully sold.
 

Competition

Up against the Yamaha is the Honda Shadow Sabre, an ideal machine always ready to take you in places you’ve only dreamed of cruising. From its 1099cc, 45-degree v-twin pumps serious power and the kind of torque everyone wants in a big cruiser. And when it comes to styling details, with its combination of brilliant chrome and scintillating paint schemes, the Sabre is flat-out stunning and a close competitor of the V Star 1100, either.

Featuring clean lines and an uncluttered look, the Vulcan 900 Classic is ideal for cruising purists. The well balanced mid-size cruiser offers riders the look and feel of the larger V-twins, without the hefty size and price. With styling cues from its biggest sibling, the Kawasaki Vulcan 2000 Classic, the 900 Classic is a sure winner in the mid-size category. Entry-level riders and those seeking more nimble than the large-displacement machines will enjoy this stylish mid-size machine.
 

Exterior

Almost every cruiser gathered under the Star designation starts with a beautifully designed headlight covered in chrome. The V Star 1100 makes no exception and this unit helps maximize nighttime visibility.

Further improving the look are the pullback handlebars which, as the headlight cover feature chrome all over it. The handlebars go well with the large, 4.5-gallon teardrop fuel tank with class-leading fuel capacity which significantly improves long-distance cruising range. On the fuel tank, an eye catching speedometer is designed with a large face for easy reading of data.

The fenders are steel, not plastic, and no mater the model they are mounted on, combine cool style with rugged durability. The wheels they cover feature cast aluminum rims which also contribute at giving a nice visual aspect.

Star takes special care of their bike’s fit and finish so the V Star features rich, lustrous paint and extensive chrome accents that make all the difference when creating a timeless machine.

Also timeless is the look of that beautiful V-twin which pulls nicely underneath the rider and still manages to catch the eyes of the motorcycling fan on the side of the road. The two-into-two exhaust also sees its way through and creates nice chromed apparel.

Test Drive

I spent some good hours aboard the V Star 1100 and I ended up with the conclusion that this is one sweet ride. It simply couldn’t have been a failure because it takes that old Virago engine and breaths life in it, resulting a special riding feel that I appreciate and you will too.

What immediately becomes obvious once on the bike is the excellent rider friendliness characteristic to middleweight cruisers. This contributed significantly to the opinion a rider forms on the bike and I think that this is one of the most pleasant to ride cruisers on the market today.

I was anxious to receive that precious feedback that now contributes at writing this test drive so I soon headed down the open road, where everything seemed more than OK with this bike. The comfortable layout allows you to relax, leaving you to enjoy the road and the beautiful view ahead. If a certain situation calls for some performance, this Star has you covered as roll-on power is very good across the rev range and handling is light and precise as all the Stars that I ridden lately.

I would call a drawback the fact that the floorboards repeatedly scrape the pavement when a more aggressive riding style is approached, but the bars hitting the knees of taller riders during parking lot maneuvers isn’t an advantage either.

The qualities that combine and make this bike feel lighter and smaller than your typical open class cruiser are the same which practically sell the product: excellent road manners, light steering, and low seat height.

Another important issue when it comes to cruisers is the sound produced. Some of them only sound best at particular rpm levels but this Star sound awesome no matter the rpm’s involved. Added to this are comfy ergonomics as a result of low wide bars, floorboards complete with heel/toe shifter and a comfy wide setting only 27.9 inches.

Shifting isn’t confusing and I didn’t manage to miss any gears during my test run. I wasn’t making a lot of effort no to, either so you won’t encounter any problems with shifting. Even more, the clutch feel is predictable and engages smoothly so in a couple of hours you will be shifting like you’ve ridden the bike for ages.

Some bumps on the road won’t disturb you while having the time of your life because the suspension units will soak up mostly every single possible inconvenience so that the ride will be smooth, enjoyable and exploit the bike’s abilities to the maximum.

The brakes are confidence-providing and offer the best feel encountered on a cruiser, and the stopping power is truly enough. I had no problem stopping quickly when needed but this kind of situation is rarely faced by cruisers.

With its loping, low- and mid-range torque, plush suspension and stable and precise handling, well, let’s just say that cruising doesn’t get any cruisier than this- under any road conditions.
 

Price

A Star motorcycle will always ask you to pick a color for it and you probably now that your choice also has an effect on the price tag. The 2008 V Star can be bought Pearl White painted or featuring Raven/w/Flames color scheme. The MSRP required for the first is only $8,799 while the second color option involves and MSRP of $8,999. Either way, this is a true bargain compared with the riding feel provided by an excellent overall middleweight motorcycle.
 

Conclusion

The 2008 V Star 1100 is the machine which perfectly blends Star quality with heavenly performance.

One thing about a really good show, it always gets taken on the road. The V Star 1100 Classic’s styling may be straight out of yesterday, but this big-bore cruiser’s work of art, high-tech 75-degree air-cooled V-Twin features the king of contemporary engineering that always deserves an encore.

The Classic variant’s spacious saddle and ergonomically designed pillion cushion perfectly complement those long days touring the capitals, while the deeply valanced fenders add a dignified and functional touch.

Models Available

V Star 1100 Classic

This is the model I wrote about during this review because it registers the biggest sales and so it is being ridden by the biggest number of Star customers. But Star also provides two different models which have the goal of attracting every single rider which desires either comfort or cool looks but knows that it’s always going to get something of both with every ride.
 

V Star 1100 Custom

It can be described as being long, low, and stripped-down to the bare beautiful essentials and powered by a modern SOHC V-Twin the V Star 1100 Custom goes as good as it looks.

You’ve either got it or you haven’t. And with a V-Star 1100 Custom, one look is enough to tell you’ve definitely got that long ’n low retro style.

V Star’s 1063cc 75-degree air-cooled, V-twin is tuned for outstanding low- and mid-range torque, and breathes through dual shotgun mufflers that walk the walk like they talk the talk.

A low-slung, large-diameter, rigid double-cradle frame is at the heart of V Star’s strong, stylish character, as well as its easy, predictable handling, and spacious rider and passenger ergonomics.
 

V Star 1100 Silverado

When you’re looking for big-time torque, big-time style and loads of comfort, check out the V Star 1100 Silverado. This bike features shaft drive, an adjustable windshield, saddlebags, and passenger backrest. What a great value.

Start with an air-cooled V-twin for effortless cruising, a 17-litre tank for all-day junkets, full rider floorboards, and much more. But when you add those special touring features you’re all set to roll for the long haul. With an extra-long wheelbase, you can really stretch out – just like the road in front of you.
