What kind of gas mileage does a 2003 Yamaha V-Star get?
General Comments: My 2003 V-Star handles quite well considering the weight and length. The factory drivers seat is relatively comfortable. I have absolutely no use for the “heel” shifter, and pretty much ignore it. Fuel mileage is great at around 53 mpg. Last tank full of gas lasted 254 kl (158 miles) before switching to reserve.

Is the V Star 1100 a street bike?
Highly recommend it. :thumbsup: These bikes have the same engine. The Virago was a regular street bike, great engine. The Yamaha engines threw that engine into the V Star and design it as a Cruiser and when they did the front exhaust went over the oil filter. They should have just designed their own factory ORK and sold it on the bike.
