No wonder V-Twin® Magazine named V Star 950 the 2009 Metric of the Year! The 942 cc 60-degree V-twin engine is both simple and sophisticated. Sure. there's no-fuss air cooling for traditional looks.

The V Star 950 achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 47 mpg with a fuel tank that holds 4. 5 gallons of gas. Fenders are real steel. front and rear. That adds to the quality look and feel. and makes customization easier. Engine: The 57. 5 cubic-inch (942 cc) engine is an air-cooled SOHC 60-degree V-twin. With four valves per cylinder. a pent-roof shaped combustion chamber. and 9. 0:1 compression ratio. this engine has been carefully designed to produce excellent power characteristics and best-in-class acceleration. To keep friction loss to a minimum and help the engine achieve the ideal performance characteristics. special compact roller-type rocker arms with needle bearings are used. These also reduce top-end weight for excellent mass centralization. The combustion chamber shape was precisely engineered to direct the fuel air charge into the center of the piston for faster combustion and maximum power. Ceramic composite plated cylinders provide excellent heat dissipation and reduced oil consumption. High-quality forged aluminum pistons have a lightweight. high strength compact design that contributes to reduce vibration. The designers realized that the engine's V twin character was so pleasing on its own that a counter balancer was unnecessary. This also contributes to simplicity and less operating noise. Sophisticated fuel injection is used on the V Star 950. The injectors are four-hole. two-directional types with spray aimed at the valve surfaces. That produces good fuel atomization for faster and more complete combustion which contributes to excellent drivability. The fuel injection system also adopts an ISC (Idling Speed Control) valve for outstanding idling stability. Lubrication is provided by a simple. reliable wet sump system. The 5-speed transmission is all new. with a smooth shifting feeling. and gear ratios spaced to let the rider take full advantage of the engine's torque characteristics and enjoy comfortable cruising at highway speeds. Naturally. power is efficiently transferred to the rear wheel using simple. quiet belt drive. The engine's look is highly detailed. with polished cylinder fins and beautifully chrome-plated cylinder head covers. for an exceptional appearance sure to be noticed. The V Star 950 achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 47 mpg with a fuel tank that holds 4. 5 gallons of gas. Chassis / Suspension: The steel double-cradle frame is long and low. contributing to the bike's spacious 95. 9-inch (2. 35 mm) overall length and 66. 3-inch wheelbase. That means a great ride to go along with the great looks. The seat height a mere 26. 6 inches off the pavement. one of the lowest around. and a fuel tank that's made as narrow as possible where it meets the seat. it is easy for most riders to put both feet firmly on the ground. Fenders are real steel. front and rear. That adds to the quality look and feel. and makes customization easier. The big 18-inch front wheel helps deliver this cruiser motorcycle's sporty handling characteristics and "Sport Classic" cruiser looks. The low-profile 130/70-18 tire is mounted on an 8-spoke lightweight aluminum wheel. The 170/70-16 bias ply rear tire adds a beefy look and helps transfer all that torque and power to the pavement. Large 320 mm front and 298 mm rear discs provide strong braking capacity with excellent feel. Front forks feature big 41 mm tubes. and rear suspension is a bottom-link-type monocross shock. Settings are calibrated to deliver a plush ride that is increasingly firm as the suspension is compressed for good handling and comfort over bigger bumps in the road. The V Star 950 has a wonderfully light feel. Surprisingly. even though it has a full-size chassis. the bike weighs just 613 pounds wet. with a full tank of gas and all fluids. Additional Features: The large-diameter meter is mounted on the fuel tank for a traditional look.
