#123091 newroadie (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 330 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   The 950 is a really nice looking bike. The 612 pounds and 26.6 inch seat will attract a lot of people.   Logged     \\[IMG\\]http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii12/26curry/DSC05909-1.jpg;size=450]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123093 javawave (User) Over 17235 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 5710 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   Vulcan 900 is a big seller for Kawi around here. Keep in mind that the US is only one market. From what I understand the rest of the world does not share our facination with big cruisers.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123108 slyguy (User) What happens in the garage stays in the garage.

Hard to find cruisers in Europe, though you do see some, even HDs. But hey... who cares about the rest of the world. There, I just caused an international incident.

Expert Boarder Posts: 423 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   i dont know?i would like to see yamaha make some changes to there other cruisers and not make a raider cruiser.(what the 950 looks like to me)just doesnt make any sense to build a bike so close to the 1100.   Logged     screwy louie   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123145 Blackroadie (User) Sometimes I wish you were a pinata ! Platinum Boarder Posts: 4368 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   Gotta feeling the 650 and the 1100 are gonna get put out to pasture. Just gonna have the 950, 1300, and the Roadie.   Logged     04 MIDNITE SILVERADO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123146 javawave (User) Over 17235 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 5710 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   I believe Yamaha had their dealer meetings going on in Texas this past week end. Maybe I will some updates from my dealer when he gets back.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123147 Blackroadie (User) Sometimes I wish you were a pinata ! Platinum Boarder Posts: 4368 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   My dealer was sure to remind me of the 10% jump in prices Oct. 1. That was nice of them.   Logged     04 MIDNITE SILVERADO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #123413 RangerDan (User) racin the wind, chasin the sun Expert Boarder Posts: 461 Re:09' VStar 950 3 Years, 8 Months ago   slyguy wrote: Hotelfox wrote: Yep, I think they are doing a good thing. I know your not going to agree with me, but that's ok. I have seen to many scooters being sold, that means that a demand for a smaller lighter mod of transport is out there, scooter sales out paced motorcycle sales for a few months if I remember right. So now your going to be looking at a LOT of first time riders that are not going to want a 1000 pound motorcycle. I have a friend that rides a 750 Honda, would love to have a R* but its to big for him. If people had to take the MSP and actually learn how to ride, it might be a different story, but there is going to be a huge portion of the populace that want a smaller bike. Life goes on, they just don't know what they are missing..... Impossible to look cool on a scooter. I agree the 950 serves a purpose, but to me it makes the 1100 look obsolete between the 950 and 1300. You don't watch American Chopper, do you?   Logged     \"When I looked at this thread, I was thinking to myself; I sure hope I get to see an image that will burn itself into my brain and spend the rest of my life trying to repress it.
