I purchased my V-Star 250 in May 2008. As of 01/02/09 I have put over 8,400 miles on the bike. I am completely satisfied with my bike. It rides and handles very well. Gas mileage has averaged around 85 to 90 miles per gallon. The fit and finish is excellent. I would recommend this motorcycle for a beginner, or if you are like me and have not owned a bike for many years, it is a great way, and very inexpensive way to get back to motorcycling.
Upgrades/Accessories: I have added a mini luggage rack from MC Enterprises, and a Memphis Shade small windshield. I am trying to purchase MC Enterprises' new sissy bar/backrest.
