  1. The bags look great. I am eventually going to buy saddlebags for my vstar 1300. I want bolt on bags where no drilling in fenders are required. Matt
  2. What do you feel is the most dangerous factor when riding a motorcycle? I fear animals and loose gravel the most. Just curious what some of you veterens think. Matt

    Renfield, Do you know how your saddleman jumbo slant bags would fit on the 1300? Can you mount them under the passenger seat? I agree about the accessories, I did not want the windshield and wanted the rock bottom price up front. I might be interested in buying your saddlebags if they will fit the 1300. It would be nice to have a seperate forum for the vstar1300, since this one is getting long. Matt

    My next purchase will be a luggage rack, then perhaps some type of storage. I really like the saddle bags that come with the tourer, but find it hard to stomach the price from Yamaha on the bags and mounting equipment. If i remember correctly its around $1400 for the bags and mounting hardware. I would love to find something similar to the factory bags but at less of a price. In the end i would probaly have been better off to pay extra and get the tourer 1300. Matt

    Has anyone been brave enough to see how fast the 1300 is? I have made it up to 100 before backing down....people give me lots of complements on the bike and ask how fast is it....anyone know the top speed? Matt
  10. Does any vstar 1300 owners know of an aftermarket backrest that is cheaper than what the geniune Yamaha kit cost? Thanks, Matt

    I just bought a new V-star 1300 last weekend and love this bike. It rides very smooth and has lots of power. I have noticed the speedometer seems to read 5 mph to slow....i wondered why everyone was passing me. Anyone else noticed t his? Love the bike overall. Matt
