Hello and thanks in advance for your input. I do not currently ride a motorcycle, but, am planning on taking the safety course and buying a bike before the end of the year. I have been wanting to ride all of my life and am finally in a position to do so. Being that I have no experience I wanted your advice on which Yamaha cruiser to buy....I was considering the V-Star 950 but don't know if that would be to much bike at this stage of the game. What do you think? I am in my 30's 5'11 and 185lbs in case that needs to be factored in.
