    To loud pipes or not to loud pipes.. that is the question :)

    Neat little app. I will do that. The same friend who told me about this has a pair of Cobra lo-boy shotgun exhausts on his and they sound amazing. I'll also post on star forums to see if anyone has any idea.

    To loud pipes or not to loud pipes.. that is the question :)

    GreyGhost, I agree that obnoxiously loud pipes are a nuisance. However, if you have heard a VStar 1100 stock, you'll quickly come to the realization that an increase in the exhaust sound would do the motorcycle some good. 2014 was my second year riding it.. almost daily from Brampton to Aurora...

    To loud pipes or not to loud pipes.. that is the question :)

    Thanks Dresden, I've come across the second link in my searches. However, that seems to be limited to Caledon only. I do ride up to the Forks a lot so this is very crucial information. Thanks. Anyone else know of any law affecting pipes in the near future?

    To loud pipes or not to loud pipes.. that is the question :)

    Hi friends, I hope everyone is as sad as I am that the cold weather has set in and riding is no longer a safe option. Counting the days till summer rolls along! In the interim I wanted to take the opportunity to get some work done on my 2003 VStar 1100 Custom - specifically removing the stock...

    Bike Shop in Milton - "Ace Moto Tech" - Customer Recommendation

    Another +1 for Adrian. He's a super guy - very detailed and very helpful. As everyone else has pointed out before, he's got fair prices, top quality work, he keeps us posted with images and details and follows up to make sure we are truly satisfied after we ride out. He's my new go-to guy...

    Motorcycle painting by viccont

    I recently put out an ad on this forum looking for someone who could paint my motorcycle. I got a few responses from some folks and one from Vic (username: viccont on this forum). He offered me the lowest price amongst all the others right off the bat. So, we talked over the phone, and decided...

    Yamaha Star/VStar Riders roll call...

    Bringing this thread back up. To go with kmalek's point I've taken Friday, June 13th off. Any cruiser riders wanna make a group ride to Dover? I'm game. I'm located in Brampton but I can meet up wherever. Lmk Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Jacket Modification

    Haha I just bought these from Amazon last week - waiting for delivery. How are they on a motorcycle? Can you hear anything at all? I got it for the same reasons to not have to see my phone while guidance is on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Choosing black paint - assistance please?

    So in your opinion, will the 41U color mixed with metallic pearls take away from the blacks deepness? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Choosing black paint - assistance please?

    I'm also wanting to get my vstar painted. This info I extremely helpful since I'm also looking to color it black. However, I'm planning to get some "pearls" added to the paint. Would it matter what shade of black I used? The guy painting suggested Tuxedo Black with metallic pearls. See this to...

    V Star 1100 mods/upgrade advice needed.

    What if I just replace my stock paper filter with this? http://www.knfilters.ca/search/product.aspx?prod=YA-1199 Will I have to rejet? I've read really good reviews about this filter but nowhere does anyone mention rejetting (or i completely missed that part).

    V Star 1100 mods/upgrade advice needed.

    Sativa do you have a 650 or 1100? I looked up the pipes on this site http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/6985/i/vance---hines-cruzer-exhaust-system but it wont give me the option for 1100cc. I'm assuming both 650 and 1100 would be the same bike with only a difference in the engine. Is that...

    V Star 1100 mods/upgrade advice needed.

    Folks, thanks for the responses so far. From what I gather above, hyperchargers / air filters seem like a hit and miss. I think I'll have to research this a bit more. As for the pipes - yes its mostly to bump up the sound so I think I'll go with Jardine Drag Slip-ons. I like their sound...
