Was out recently on my VSTAR 650, riding with a buddy on his Roadstar.
A couple of times, he really punched it, and I stayed right with him
on the VSTAR.

Of course the VSTARS a couple of hundred pounds lighter and he had is
wife on the back. But, still.........I wasn't disappointed in the
VSTAR.

cheers

She's a good sized gal. Not fat, but solid. Probably weighs 135 or
so.

I've had my back warmer on a few times. Not really helpfull at the
stop light grand prix.

It has nothing to do with her weight. You must be single.
