Archived from groups: alt>motorcycles>yamaha, others (more info?)

A family member has a 2002 Yamaha Roadstar Silverado motorcycle. I
would like to get him one or more accessories for his new toy, err,
transportation.

What is the best accessory (or hot-rod type item) to get him for under
$65? Where is the cheapest place to buy this?

His wife mentioned that he was maybe wanting a pouch deal that
attaches to the handlebars and holds things like sunglasses, wallet,
etc. For those of you that have this accessory what is your favorite
design or brand and again where should I buy it cheaply?

Thanks a bunch folks.

Bob

I would get a t-shirt, hat etc.....when you buy a mod/accessory, you have to
know exactly what the rider wants.
Good Luck

That's good advice, but the bar-bag is not a bad idea either. I'd guess
that most MC shops would allow for an exchange, particularly if it's the
shop where he bought the bike. Yamaha has made an effort to support the
Roadstar with aftermarket accessories, maybe they have something.

Here are leather windshield bags for the Road Star from Yamaha.

I have V-Star, and I purchased a Yahama leather windshield bag for it
several years ago. It looks great and is very handy.

Here's the link to the main Yamaha motorcycle accessories site:

Yeah, but don't get him a HD tool kit because the yammy comes with one
already. My buddy was gonna put his $20,000 gold-key, 100th anniversary
Harley away for the winter when he realized it didn't come with a tool kit .
But then, who ever heard of a Harley breaking down?

"MadDog" you're letting it show. Don't let it be so obvious to the group.
I had two Harleys, and recently. Kept each one about a year each. Great
bikes. First one, though gave me a few problems, speedo quit working,
leaking head gaskets, nothing serious. Would have been if I hadn't been
under warranty. Went back to a Yamaha RoadStar because its a better looking
bike than the HD and more dependable. I have put a lot of custom
accessories for the $5,000 plus that I saved not buying another HD.
American made? Yeah right. Guess who owns a LARGE share in Harley?

The Silverado has a stock winshield and Yamaha sells a bolt on bag that
mounts in between the handlebar and the shield, to the shield. This place
does good for pricing and service.
