THANKS FOR THE TIP. HERE IN THE USA NOT MUCH ATTENTION IS PAID TO THE 250!!

Hi Folks, I have a 2009 v star 250 and I'd like to replace the pillion seat with an aftermarket luggage rack without sissy bar. Any ideas. Googling has been unsuccessful. Thanks

Merry Xmas!! I have my brother checking old photos to see if I can post them so you can help us identify my Grandad's bike. He was known to ride BSA's, Nortons, etc over the years. I think we have a photo of him sitting on the bike i remember in Maguiresbride in 1956 or so. My current ride, as I understand it, would be called an xvs 250 Dragstar in the UK. I absolutely love it!! All the best, ross

Thanks for the advice, but i might have to wait for Obama's national health to qualify for a free bicycle. I was talking about 60mph not 60kph. I hope that doesn't mean I'd be 95 years old if I moved to the UK!!

Hi! Isn't a small island off Donegal Long Island (NY) where I was born??

Hello All!! I just bought my second bike at the age of 60 so I'm learning everthing anew. I'm also a complete computer luddite so apologies in advance for delayed replies as I've had these typing fingers for sixty years and I can't do a thing with them! By the by, are you all Brits here? I think I qualify, as the first time I "rode" a motorbike was sitting on the gastank of my grandfather's BSA in Fermangh,NI in the 1950's. Very fond memories,indeed. I don't quite understand how a group of Brit gearheads can be so witty- I'm constantly laughing at the repartee. All the best, and apologies for my Trimph riding brother in New York!!

Hi Folks I,m another newbie who commutes on a small bike due to some issues with arthritis. i commute at approx 60mph and this bike has no tach. am i shortening the longevity of the engine at these rpms? top end on the virago is much higher than 60 mph, but i need this bike to last a long time and i really can't handle a heavier machine due to leg strength. i'd appreciate any thoughts. thanks
