Moderator Goff Posted January 31, 2009 Moderator Posted January 31, 2009 Just been over to my neares Yamaha dealers to take a look at the new XVS950A Midnight Star. I have to say it is absolutely GORGEOUS. Its light, comfortable and i do beleive Yamaha may have got it right this time. Looks wise, its sleek and sexy, the matt black compliments the chrome and tones it down a tad which i think looks so much better than the gloss black frame of the 650. The only thing im not keen on it the fact that the brake fluid reservoir is right on the front, but i can live with that. So - am now negotiating with the dealer for one of these babies - fingers crossed for monday!

I am very shrewd with money - i save for what i want and have several invesments here and there hence why i get what i want when i want And yes - it was Chorley. Might be going over again tomorrow so he can take a look at Elvira to confirm what he is willing to part ex her in for.
Moderator Airhead Posted January 31, 2009 Moderator Posted January 31, 2009 Looks fantastic, pic's a little dark though, I thought you would have took some pics of your own, so then.....looks like Elvira's days are numbered.
oldtimer Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 its boody cold out there today and the snow not due till monday so wrap up my dear, ps waiting for the next instalment on the tattoo thigh shot! well i am a leg man........
vic-fzr600 Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Hi Goff! New bike looks good. It'll be interesting to hear what they offer you for Elvira - these dealers normally have no appreciation at all for custom work on bikes, espec somethin as complex as your paintjob!
