Yamaha Star Venture
General features
Designed around a rigid chassis and advanced suspension systems, the Star Venture is built to offer Yamaha’s renowned handling ability when the road turns twisty, without losing the comfort or straight-line confidence expected from a luxury tourer. Star Venture adapts to rider and passenger needs straight from the dealership floor with its adjustable ergonomics, wind protection and controls. Grip warmers and heated seats for both rider and passenger come standard, and the low seat height adds confidence at every stop.
Yamaha Star Venture History
Yamaha Star Venture History & Generations Source: Wikipedia
Yamaha created a V4 engine that debuted in the Yamaha Venture motorcycle series. The first in the series was the Venture Royale produced To 1993. Yamaha discontinued the design until 1996 when it resurrected the Venture engine and produced a cruiser-style motorcycle called the Royal Star that was produced until 2001.
Yamaha introduced the V-Max. The first generation V-Max engine was a modified version of the one used in the earlier 1198 cc version of the Venture Royale.
Yamaha again brought out a large full touring motorcycle known as the Royal Star Venture, again using a variation of the Venture power package. And was manufactured, largely unchanged, through the 2013 year model. Though Yamaha revived the Venture name that it used on the 1983 to 1993 Venture Royale models, the Royal Star Venture shares little with its predecessor except for the time-proven, liquid-cooled V4 engine and shaft drive.
It introduced the Royal Star Tour Deluxe, which is the Royal Star Venture without the fairing, radios or trunk.
