Yamaha Other description

Selling my '05 VOLT-star. Around 31,000 mis. Michelin Commander II tires new last summer, less than 1,zero miles on them. Silverado edition has saddle bags and the windshield. Starts and runs well, rides smooth. The left bag has some stitching coming undone but doesn't affect functionality. The left turn signal bulb has the running light burned out, but the blinker flashes fine. New battery a couple years ago. Garaged most of the year, sometimes parked outside in the summer. Mechanically great, no issues. VIN is Missouri DMV assigned. When I titled it, the IA DOT Inspector told me the bike had been totaled when brand new and they more or less took the engine out and put it in a new bike. As such, he titled it CUSTOM so it would have a normal title, just like if you took an engine out of another bike and built a custom from the ground up. You can let go of both hands and it tracks straight. It is the same as a bone stock bike other than the seat. The factory saddle and pillion were bricks so I put Mustang on it. Driver's seat has a back-rest, pillion has a sissy bar. Great bike
