The Road Star also has the lowest engine height of any large V-twin cruiser, further enhancing its long, low style and riding attitude. Yamaha also offers more than 160 attractive Star Line accessories, including leather saddlebags, seats, billet chrome add-ons and several Road Star-spec windshield sizes specially designed to fit the Road Star. The Road Star comes in Onyx, Crimson/Cherry Red and Deep Purple, with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $10,599 US (Onyx and Deep Purple) and $10,699 US (Crimson/Cherry Red).

2000 Yamaha V Star 1100 Custom – Motorbike Bicycle
Yamaha’s fresh-from-the-ground-up V-Star 1100 is a bold new entry in the middleweight market. The new V-Star represents an entirely different perspective. The V-Star 1100 follows the same concept as the very popular V-Star 650. As our 1998 Cruiser of the Year, the entry-level V-Star Classic won high marks for value, visual appeal and overall package performance. The V-Star 1100 will retail for a suggested $7799, right at the bottom of the 1100-class price range. All of the models in the Star cruiser series feature a striking visual balance and keen exhaust note. The V-Star 1100′s long, low stance, consolidated components and rounded edges integrate in a flowing visual effect. If worthiness were based on beauty alone, this new V-Star would be runner-up only to Honda’s Shadow Aero ($9700). We love the drag bars, spoked wheels and pert bobtail rear fender. In terms of performance, the V-twin-powered V-Star 1100 is, alas, easily outrun by its fraternal twin, the Virago — reigning King of Performance in the 1100 class. There’s only a faint oscillation at lower rpm felt through the pegs, grips and fuel tank (if your knees contact it). Yamaha uses a double-cradle frame in the V-Stars and draws out the chassis length for a long, low look. We enlisted a 5-foot-5 rider to sit on the V-Star and she could easily touch the ground, with both feet. The rider’s ergonomics are comfortable with the drag-style bars set low but graduating rearward. Steering the V-Star 1100 doesn’t require exertion and the bike hooks up and travels solidly and smoothly in every cornering situation, from parking-lot maneuvers to high-speed sweepers. The V-Star drivetrain is smooth and easy to manipulate. The five-speed transmission worked flawlessly and the well-staged gear ratios were appreciated. Handlebar controls are easy to access and the low bar provides a nice visual frame for the tank-mounted gauges.

Mirrors on the V-Star are stylishly small and teardrop-shaped. Like the other bikes in the V-Star lineup, the 1100′s overall performance package is more than worth the asking price. It may not deliver the grunt of Yamaha’s 1600cc pushrod V-twin Road Star or approach the Royal Star in visual refinements, but the V-Star 1100 is an extremely well-balanced, middle-of-the-road motorcycle. Gather them all and point them in the direction of Yamaha’s V-Star 1100. A narrowish bar and way-low seat height ensure comfort and confidence for those closer to the ground. Requisitely smooth throttle response, good low-end grunt and a fairly comfortable (did we already say “low”?) seating position round out the basic goodies. I score the Star slightly higher for saddle and suspension but the Virago feels like it was built for my dimensions and riding style. If I bought the Virago, I’d be sorry that the V-Star is slower.

2000 Yamaha Road Star – Motorbike Bicycle
For instance, despite being so outwardly similar, Yamaha’s Road Star is cheaper than Harley-Davidson’s Fat Boy, it’s nearest competitor. grasshopper? The general consensus (or misconception) is that it’s harder to customize your Road Star than to customize a Fat Boy. A quick call to Yamaha had a “specially-modified” Road Star beckoning for a rider. Perfect. Accolades should be directed towards four factors, most important of which is the incorporation of a JE high-compression piston kit that raised the compression ratio from 8.3:1 to 10.25:1, a substantial increase in both compression ratio as well as the resulting power output. To feed the increased displacement, a 42mm Mikuni Flatside carb replaces the stock 40mm CV carb and breathes through a free flowing air filter. This “black-box” has settings for 10 unique throttle maps as well as the ability to increase the redline to 5,000rpm. The exceptions are the Vance & Hines exhaust system, pistons, air-flow upgrade parts and ignition box. The pistons, carb and air-filter kit, as well as the ignition box were provided by Patrick Racing (714-554-7223). Once again, the ever-present comfort vs. performance (or in this case “customance”) rears its ugly head. If the saying, “loud pipes save lives” holds even a thimble full of water, then anybody riding a big bore bike with these pipes will live forever.
