Hello all, I'm looking for an opinion on upgrading my motorcycle. I currently have a 2003 Yamaha VStar 650 Silverado and I really think I've outgrown it. She's good for back roads and around town but she seems revved out at highway speeds, and it seems like they really could have included a 6th gear to help with that.
Ideally, A Kawasaki Nomad would be a good replacement, but in the event I can't find one for a good price would a smaller displacement Japanese Branded Cruiser with fuel injection still be a good choice? Or would I feel the same about a Honda Shadow on the highway?
Also, Most used Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycles are still above what I am looking to pay for a bike.
Any thoughts?
