HawkCrest – Yamaha VStar
The VStar, what a great bike! Simple, fun, low to the ground, easy to ride. The definition of a classic. This was originally a tribute to my family: A crest on the hypercharger, a bit of engine work and a polished look overall. A few years later I felt a change was appropriate, and the Hawk got roughed up, fender chopped and single-seated.
I sold the bike to a great woman locally and sometimes see it on the street. This was always a cure to any bad day for me, hopefully it is for her as well.
