XVS650
The learner approved V-Star 650s have topped the cruiser sales charts for a number of years with good reason.
Plenty of attitude in a surprisingly lean and low package - priced to leave more room in your pocketbook to express yourself with cool Custom Star Accessories.
A low seat height means just about anyone can ride one – and more crucially, the 650s have the fit, finish, reliability and performance that all our Stars are known for.
An ideal starting point to the world of V-twin, the 650 V-Stars punch well above their weight. Meaning you get all the benefits of sweet handling and light weight while you appear to be riding a full bore badass V-twin.
Now there's no reason to settle for less than a real Star.
Classic instrumentation
Mounted atop the beautiful teardrop tank, this chromed speedometer designed with a large face for easy reading or tripmeter/odometer displays, as well as turn signal, neutral, high beam, and engine diagnostic indicator lights.
Forty cubic inches
Beautifully chromed and polished 649cc air-cooled, SOHC 70 degree V-twin cranks out torquey low and mid range power with minimal engine rpm - maximum torque is reached at only 3000 rpm - for powerful, smooth cruising performance.
Powerful Brakes
Single front disc and rear drum brakes deliver strong, confidence-inspiring stopping power.
Shaft Drive
Low maintenance shaft drive provides quiet, hassle-free performance. Right-side two-into-two chrome exhaust pipes contribute to the sleek styling and sweet aura persona of the V-Star 650.
Make it your own
Tight, figure-hugging lines with more compact mudguards and cushions and a set of spoked wheels give the 650 Custom a raw, stripped down appearance. There's an extra edge to its character that forms a perfect platform for an upgrade project.
