I'm Doc and reside in Tucson, AZ. I am purchasing a 2008 1300 V-Star 1245 miles. Fuel pump, lines, tank cleaned, and new belt. 3500.00. It's beautiful. I am joining because I just came across the forum and the 1300 knowledge seems to be elusive. I am a seasoned, novice rider. I've on a 2008 ZX10 1983 KZ 550 1983 KZ1000. I'm a vet, student, and work in behavioral health. Look forward to learning and sharing. DOC
