2006-2008: V-Star 1100
2008: Roadstar 1700
I never had the chance to grow through any other bikes. But I'd be more than happy to give any a try.

Started in my early twentys with a yamaha sr500 single cylinder kickstart only. Rode it for about a year and a half then took a long break. After years of going to Daytona I wanted a bike my 3 choices were:
- a custom, or a kit and build it myself; one was too $$$$, and the other wasn't the best choice for my first cruiser.
- a softtail standard or a fatboy, standard was too small and both were at the time still too $$$$$$.
- a roadstar, why? It was a carburated,air cooled,belt driven, softtail. Sorry to some but I NEVER considered any other
metric. Found a '01 midnight* with 7,900 miles for $6,500. Easily half the price of a Harley.
I've had my R* for over 3 yrs. and now realize that it shouldv'e been my second choice.
