2011 Yamaha V-Star 1100 Custom model Features

ENGINE
= 1,063cc, air-cooled, SOHC, 2 valves per cylinder, 75°, V-twin produces outstanding low- and mid-range torque - maximum torque is reached at only 2,500 rpm - for exceptional cruising performance.
= Lightweight forged pistons provide excellent durability while reducing reciprocating mass for fast throttle response. Connecting rods are carburized for durability.
= Ceramic composite cylinder plating ensures superior heat dissipation for better cooling, reduced friction and longer engine life.
= Thick cylinder cooling fins enhance the stylish look while increasing cooling efficiency and reducing mechanical noise.
= Dual Mikuni BSR 37mm carburetors with throttle position sensors (T.P.S.) feature an electronic fuel pump, carburetor heaters and handy side-mounted air filter to ensure consistent fuel flow, great throttle response and optimum power throughout the rev range.
= Maintenance-free, transistorized coil ignition (T.C.I.) provides a hot spark for sure starts.
= Automatic cam chain tensioners reduce maintenance while silent-type cam chain also reduces mechanical engine noise.
= One-way, cam clutch-type starter decreases mechanical noise during starting.
= Smooth-shifting, 5-speed transmission is perfect for city or highway use. 5th gear is an overdrive gear for reduced engine rpms at highway speeds for a smooth comfortable ride.
= Low-maintenance, chrome, exposed shaft drive delivers superior reliability and a clean, quiet ride. No chain to adjust or lube!
= 2-into-2 exhaust system with dual shotgun-style staggered pipes plays outstanding V-twin music. Mufflers can easily be changed to aftermarket components, if desired.
= Air Induction System (A.I.S.) reduces harmful CO and HC exhaust emissions.
= Numerous chromed engine parts reinforce this motorcycle's quality image.

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION
= Low-slung, large-diameter, double-cradle frame with 32° rake creates a strong, stylish machine with precise, predictable handling.
= Extra-long 1640mm (64.6") wheelbase produces a long and low retro profile, with spacious ergonomics for added rider comfort and relaxed, stable handling.
= Class-lowest, 690mm (27.2") seat height enhances maneuverability and provides extra rider confidence.
= 41mm front fork with 140mm (5.5") of travel smoothes out the bumps and features chrome-plated chip protectors for added protection against fork tube damage.
= 7-step spring preload-adjustable single rear shock is mounted horizontally under the engine, thereby lowering the centre of gravity for better handling and a plush ride.
= Rear shock location provides that hidden classic, hardtail look. Rear wheel travel is 113mm (4.5").
= Large-diameter, dual 298mm front discs with twin piston calipers provide strong, confidence-inspiring stopping power.
= 282mm rear disc brake with opposed piston caliper
= Narrow, custom-style front tire on 18" spoked chrome wheel means sportier handling.
= Wide, 15" rear tire and stylish "bobtail" fender with mudguard add a timeless touch and provides excellent mud and splash protection.
= Low-profile, split tandem seats offer all-day rider comfort. Passenger seat is removable.
= Large, 17-litre, teardrop fuel tank provides an extra long cruising range.
