Hi all had a ride to lancaster the other night pulled into the service station on the m6, went for a piss came back to bike would not start, i think left my oxford heated grips on so had to jump it. Got bike going then decided to carry on the m6 to the lakes with my heated grips turned of, 30 miles later pulled in stopped bike then tried to start fuck all happened, jump it again back on m6 59 miles later at home stopped bike, guess what bike still would not start why, is it the starter switch or coil or battery fucked , but it is a new battery. Thanks all

I have been searching endlessly for some alternative brand, style and tread patterns that will fit the Yamaha V-Star 1300, 2007. I am frustrated and irritated that the only ones I can find are the same ones that came on it. It seems the 16" rims are the rub here, but I do not want to have to buy new rims! It has to be some collusion between Bridgestone and Yamaha. It is starting to really anger me.
