Moto Yamaha XVS 950 A Midnight Star

Yamaha XVS 950 A custom is the smallest of the series produced by Midnight Star custom home Iwata for cyclists who want to follow the Japanese brand in this market segment so special, looking for a good balance between the cubic volume and weight of the motorcycle, look very unbalanced in its “sisters” from 1900 cc and 1300 cc. The XVS 950 A presents a displacement of 942 cc and a weight of 278 kilograms, is equipped with a V-twin engine with air cooling can develop a maximum power of 54 bhp at 6000 rpm and maximum torque of 7 , 84 kgm at 3000 rpm.

As for the chassis, front fork is a fork with 41 mm working discreetly, while the rear suspension unit has a range rather small does not help the rider in case of uneven asphalt. Finally, to underline the seat height from the ground of only 675 mm: one of the worst consequences of this is the fact that mixed routes platforms come to scrape the asphalt so sure many owners are the manufacturers of aftermarket accessories for around this annoying problem.

Yamaha is not the first Japanese manufacturer on groped their luck in the field of custom, but we must say that the houses of the Rising Sun this segment is still off limits, meaning that in general, and Harley Davidson custom and special U.S. continue to lord it and their rule seems to be not even scratched dall’agguerrita competition Japan.
