Re:2008 roadstar 2 Years, 1 Month ago  
Thanks everyone for the welcome ...I think all of your bikes are great looking..I think that a rosdstar is a bike that is hard to bet...You can make it look anyway you would like to...I am going to fix one up later with a big swing arm and a little rack to it for a run around town bike... The one I have now is great to ride anywhere and as far as you like ..Only time I need to stop on it is just for gas..
