Other bike Reply #45 - 12/13/09 at 18:26:33 Vstar 1300 if you have to have a Vtwin. I'm setting mine up for long distance daytripper for me and the wife, and the Suzi will be my custom commuter after I finish with my engine and paint work. I love both and plan to keep both for a very long time.

A tiny little vtwin with a weird gas tank setup (under the seat) thats wicked quick. Yamaha I think. I also think it's ugly as all get out but thats me, though it really is tiny. Smaller and more cramped than my old rebel 250 as I recall.

Burn has it right, another low seat height bike that puts out 45 hp and can cruise at whatever speed is needed for whatever distance is required.

Carries 2 big saddle bags and a wind shield. My road cruiser for short legged old people.

With under seat tank and normal small tank holds nearly 4 gallons of gas, so it can go a bit between pit stops.
