Only the price tag will tell you this machine is a mid-size model. Everything else - the long, low styling, the authentic 40 cubic-inch V-twin, the painstaking attention to detail -- will just plain knock you out. Take one for a nice long ride, and you'll see why. Big on value and good looks, the V-Star 650 Classic punches way above its weight. It's a champion by unanimous decision.

Key Features
