The V-Star 650 Custom rolls in on a 19-inch spoked front wheel and 100/90 tire. The metal fender is suitably petite to highlight the sporty look and to coincide with the bike's naked 41mm stanchions. The seat also slims down in thickness, which most likely accounts for the way low 25.6-inch claimed seat height (the lowest on any cruiser in production and 2.4 inches lower than the Classic's 28-inch height). The Custom's engine receives a semi-gloss black finish on all bottom-end covers, and the shaft drive cover (the left rear cover) has a different shape than the Classic's primary-drive-cover emulator. Bringing up the rear of the Custom is a bobbed fender over a wheel and tire of the same proportions as the Classic The Custom's suspension offers the only functional difference with the Classic. Tuned for more "sporty" handling, the Custom received tauter suspension rates.
