Yamaha Road Star description
1999 Yamaha XV1600 Road StarAre you ready to rumble?With a cubic capacity greater than that of some cars (1602cc) the Yamaha XV1600A???s massive, pushrod V-twin mill delivers an outrageous 134.3nm of torque at 2250rpm. It???s a sea of grunt that almost renders your gear shifter obsolete ??? pick a gear, any gear, roll on the throttle and feel Road Star???s trade mark, shoulder-yanking grunt. It???s what you get from 98 cubic inches of monster motorcycle powerplant ??? an artful merging of traditional cruiser design principles and up to the minute technology. Hydraulic valve lifters and smooth-riding belt drive meet high-tech cylinder plating and Mikuni carb with throttle position sensor, coasting enricher & accelerator pump. And believe us, when it???s attached to an XV1600, the term ???accelerator??? pump is used advisedly! Road Star has the show to match the go. Gleaming bodywork and classic styled, deep-valanced fenders, making it a feast of feel and smooth flowing lines. The cockpit layout is relaxed and comfortable, with wide, backswept handlebars on rubber-mountings, and floating floorboards. Handling is stable, neutral and confidence-inspiring, thanks to a rigid, double cradle frame, beefy, brushed-steel fork and quality Bilstein shock, while powerful, triple disc brakes bring speeds down in a controlled and easy manner.
