Motorcycle - 20 Years of Waiting






2005 Yamaha XVS1100AT-C



After 20 years of waiting and dreaming, I finally broke down and bought a motorcycle. The deciding factor was the recent huge upswing of gas prices with no end in sight. The money I'll save in gas pays for the bike and then some. It will be delivered to the house today since I just got my permit and I need to practice, practice, practice. So here it is.

2005 Yamaha V Star 1100cc Silverado light metallic gold/green with black and chrome accents, custom Corbin Dual Tourer Seats and a rear chrome luggage rack. It has 2024 miles on it. Price = $7,500 including tax and license.
