The Yamaha V-star 1100 has a top speed of 175 km/h, produces 62 hp and weighs 272 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
ヤマハ V-Star 1100（一部の市場ではドラッグスター1100として知られています）は、ハーレーダビッドソンのソフテイルラインナップと直接競合するように設計された中型クルーザーとして1999年に発売されました。クラシックなVツインクルーザーの美学と現代の日本の信頼性が特徴です。Virago 1100に取って代わり、2000年代を通じてヤマハで最も人気のあるクルーザーの1つになり、スムーズなパワーデリバリーと快適なエルゴノミクスで高く評価されました。2009年まで生産が続けられ、メンテナンスコストが低く、アフターマーケットでのサポートが充実していることで知られる、今でも高く評価されている中古クルーザーです。

購入者が知っておくべきこと
Strong Long-Term Reliability
The V-Star 1100's air-cooled V-twin engine is known for routinely exceeding 50,000–80,000 miles with basic maintenance. It's widely regarded as one of the most dependable bikes in the mid-size cruiser segment.
Watch the Final Drive
The shaft drive system can develop leaks or wear if fluid changes are neglected — always check for oil seepage around the rear drive housing before buying used. A well-maintained shaft drive, however, is virtually maintenance-free.
Slow Depreciation Curve
The V-Star 1100 holds its value unusually well for a mid-size cruiser, partly due to strong demand and a loyal owner community. Used models from the early 2000s still command $3,000–$5,000 in good condition.

"決して恥ずかしくない、頼りになるクルーザー。"
2003年のV-Star 1100で30,000km近く走ったが、一度も立ち往生したことは一度もなかった。1063ccのVツインは、アイドル状態からきれいに引っ張って引っ張り続け、83Nmの太いトルクヒットはシティライディングを本当に満足のいくものにするのに十分な低さに到達した。これは速いバイクではありません。170 km/hという理論上の上限は、あまり訪れることはないでしょうし、高速道路の通過には自発的ではなく計画が必要です。690mmのシートの高さは背の低いライダーへの本物の贈り物であり、エルゴノミクスは非常にニュートラルなので、3時間頃にストックシートが麻痺しますが、人間工学は非常にニュートラルなので、一日中文句なく乗ることができます。私の唯一の不満は、2バルブのSOHCセットアップで、交通量の少ない中でも著しく熱くなることと、駐車場での操縦を嫌がる馬と格闘しているように感じさせるウェットウェイトです。

"A dependable, unpretentious cruiser that rewards patient, practical riders."
$2,500-$5,000 usedThe V-Star 1100 is one of the most bulletproof cruisers you'll find on the used market, and Yamaha really got the basics right here. The air-cooled V-twin pulls smoothly from low revs, the shaft drive means zero chain maintenance headaches, and these things genuinely last well past 50,000 miles when properly serviced. For the money, it's hard to argue with the value proposition. That said, you need to go in with eyes open. The stock suspension is agricultural at best — it'll have you feeling every crack in the pavement, and the rear shock is particularly disappointing. Carburetor models need the usual jetting attention, especially if the previous owner left fuel sitting. Check the carb carefully on anything pre-2009. Also worth noting: the riding position is pure shadow-style cruiser, so if you're tall, you'll be cramped within an hour. Used prices are reasonable because there are loads of them out there. That's actually a good thing — parts are plentiful and any competent indie mechanic knows these bikes. Don't pay over $4,500 for anything under 30k miles.
