Description

For years, 40 cubic-inches was a lot of motor. Guess what. It still is, especially when a sweet, overhead-cam 40-inch V-twin powers a bike that doesn't weight so much. The V Star Classic is light, maneuverable and ready for you to make it your own.

  • Retro style is even cooler when it's combined with modern engineering, including an SOHC air-cooled V-twin and shaft drive.
  • Rider floorboards, steel fenders, custom-looking clear turn signals, lots of chrome, etc. — the V Star Classic represents tremendous cruiser bang for the buck.
  • Rigid-look frame provides a great ride via a hidden rear shock with 3.9 inches of travel.
Engine
  • Beautifully chromed and polished 40-cubic-inch (649cc) air-cooled, SOHC 70-degree V-twin cranks out torquey low- and mid-range power with minimal engine rpm—maximum torque is reached at only 3000 rpm—for powerful, smooth cruising performance.
  • Wide-ratio five-speed transmission ensures extremely usable, cruiser-friendly power delivery to the asphalt.
  • Low-maintenance shaft drive provides quiet, reliable performance.
  • Two-into-two chrome exhaust pipes create sleek styling and deliver maximum low- and mid-range engine output.
Chassis/Suspension
  • Stout, large-diameter steel frame designed to provide low seat height with ample legroom.
  • Long, low 64-inch wheelbase adds to rider and passenger comfort and predictable handling.
  • Stylish heel/toe shifter adds versatility and enhances overall cruising comfort.
  • Comfortably placed full-size rider floorboards enhance ride by minimizing engine vibration and fatigue.
  • Beefy, telescopic front fork with stainless steel covers and 5.5 inches of travel ensures a smooth ride with stylish durability.
  • Hardtail-look frame conceals a link-type, preload-adjustable single rear shock with 3.9 inches of travel for excellent handling and a plush ride.
  • Single front disc and rear drum brakes deliver strong, confidence-inspiring stopping power.
  • Wide, retro-style handlebars evoke a classic design with roomy ergonomics for enhanced rider comfort.
  • Fat front tire on wire-spoked wheel combines retro styling with solid handling and traction.
Additional Features
  • Industry-leading Star Family fit and finish features rich, lustrous paint and extensive chrome accents that create a stunningly timeless machine.
  • Deeply valanced steel front and rear fenders both durable and unmistakably classic.
  • Large 4.2-gallon teardrop fuel tank features class-leading fuel capacity for extra long-distance cruising range.
  • Beautiful, tank-mounted speedometer designed with a large face for easy reading of tripmeter/odometer displays and turn signal, neutral, high beam and engine diagnostic indicator lights.
  • Chrome 60/55-watt halogen headlight adds a nice stylish touch and maximizes nighttime visibility.
  • Maintenance-free 12V 10AH battery ensures reliable, no-fuss starting.
