Was it easy to handle in traffic? How quick is the response from the V-twin engine?
Hi Karthik Raj, thanks for leaving a review and asking some great questions! The Yamaha XVS400 DragStar is designed with a torque-rich V-twin engine which provides a smooth and responsive ride in traffic – making it fairly easy to handle. However, as it’s a used model, the responsiveness might vary slightly depending on its previous user’s maintenance and riding habits. Rest assured, Yamaha’s reputation for reliable performance stays constant. Hope this helps and thanks for considering BikeMart!
I have to say, the quality is impressive. Well-built, comfortable and utterly reliable. The price is spot on for the kind of quality it offers.
How comfortable is the seat for long rides? Does the bike heat up after a long cruise?
Hi Elena Tan, thanks for reaching out with your questions about the Yamaha XVS400 DragStar. The seat of the bike is designed for comfort during leisurely rides and city cruising. However, comfort levels might vary on longer trips and it’s subjective to the rider. As for the bike heating up, the Yamaha XVS400 DragStar has an air-cooled V-twin engine which is generally efficient in heat dissipation. However, like all motorcycles, the engine will produce heat, especially after a long cruise. The amount and perception of this heat can depend on several factors, including the weather, road conditions, and the style of riding. Please let us know if there’s anything else we can assist you with!
