Yamaha Road Star description

2012 Yamaha Road Star S, 2012 Yamaha Road Star S
Built to perform and customize like noting else. The Road Star S is one of the most customized air-cooled V-twins in the business... and with a god reason too. It simply looks good, due mostly to the classic appeal of that hardtail-looking hardware that goes with it. The Road Star S gets even more chrome switgear, front brake master cylinder, front forks and levers.



Features

The Road Star S gets chrome accents to the front end and Stainless Steel braided throttle and clutch cables, front fork and levers.
Electronic fuel injection provides easy cold starting and flawless fuel delivery at nearly all altitudes and in nearly any conditions.
102-cubic-inch (1670cc) V-twin powered beauty in a long and low hardtail-look frame, with plenty of customization potential built in. Modern engineering and materials, including ceramic-composite cylinder liners for superior heat dissipation.
Air cooling, hydraulic valve lifters, and belt final drive reduce maintenance requirements to a minimum.
Estimated 36 mpg* means this cruiser is in for a long haul between fill-ups.
Industry-leading Star family fit and finish mean lustrous paint and extensive chrome accents that create a machine as stunning as it is powerful.
Ultra-thin, tank-mounted speedometer features a stylish design and provides easy reading of odometer, dual tripmeters, clock and fuel gauge as well as low fuel, high beam, turn signal, neutral and engine diagnostic indicator lights.
LED taillight and clear turn signal lenses with amber bulbs for a custom look, great visibility and reduced current draw.
Full-size floating-type rider floorboards with replaceable wear pad are roomy and comfortable.
A two-piece heel/toe shifter and braided stainless clutch and throttle cables add even more comfort and style.
4.8-gallon fuel tank with low-fuel warning light means exceptional cruising range.

The Japanese oddity to naming teams

Wed, 28 Jul 2010

Whenever the calendar shifts to a major Japanese race, such as the Suzuka 8hr, one of the more amusing things to do is glance down the team sheet This years highlight for me has to be team Moto Bum, with other stand outs including aprilia D.D.BOYS, Team Etching Factory Yamaha and MITO MOTO & e'freaks Honda. Looking back through the ages some of the great Japanese team names have been Burning Blood Racing Team, Dog Fight Racing and Team Moto Space amongst others.

Day 7 Dakar 2014: Barreda Wins Another

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

After a day of rest, Sunday’s stage seven was characterized by rain during the night and a new Dakar country – Bolivia. After an early start at 4:30 in the morning, the first 62 miles of the special stage into Bolivia had to be shortened due to rain and poor visibility, low-hanging clouds that prevented the helicopters from taking off creating security issues. The route led across the Andes and towards the Bolivian border.
