I AM 75 AND BEEN RIDING SINCE I WAS 16 AND HAVE OWENED APPROX 19 BIKES, BRITISH AMERICAN JAPENESE AND ITALIAN. I JUST TRADED IN A HARLEY ULTRA CLASSIC FOR THIS STRATOLIA AND AM BLOWN AWAY. COMFORTABLE, CONTROLABLE, AND GOES LIKE S-----T. FAR AND AWAY ONE OF THE TOP TWO BIKES IVE OWNED THE OTHER BEING A GOLD WING. CONS. NOISY ENGINE AND HEADLIGHT SHAPE.
NEVER UNDERSTOOD THE HARLEY THING WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER MUCH MUCH BETTER BIKES OUT THERE SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE.

I own two Yamaha cruisers, a '87 1300 Venture Royale (yes, with an E), which I bought the summer of '19 w/86k on it (all stock) which still runs like a champ..an incredibly smooth riding machine!

I own two Yamaha cruisers, a '87 1300 Venture Royale (yes, with an E), which I bought the summer of '19 w/86k on it (all stock) which still runs like a champ..an incredibly smooth riding machine!
One negative at least for me is, unlike the passenger who has floorboards, the driver has foot pegs instead, which makes a huge (comfort wise) blood circulation/leg muscle cramping difference, floorboards all around makes more sense on a cruiser.
I bought my '07 1300 Midnight Venture late summer of '20 w/17k on it, runs like a beast. There are two negatives so far, one (unlike my '87) no passenger arm rests option, at least not that I can find, which I think is odd since it is a "2 up" cruising bike and the other is the trunk is way to shallow. I prefer full-face helmets but can only fit "half" helmets in it, unlike my '87 which easily fits two full-face helmets.
As for riding/handling characteristics of either bike under various weather conditions, I cannot comment, I am a "fair weather rider".
All-in-all..so far, both are awesome bikes!

I just bought this today from a local Harley dealer who took it in on trade for another cookie cutter Harley. I also traded an '06 Roadstar for it! So I was a Harley guy until I met this love of my life. When I test rode it and rode later, it felt like I was floating down the road. This is the first bike that I could see a guy actually falling asleep on while riding. The lines look like a black 50's Cadillac! The chrome is in the right places, beautiful scallops on the huge tank and a lovely and comfy saddle to straddle. I can only hope the reliability and ease of maintenance is as pleasing!

As an old motocross rider, I had never ridden street bikes much so I really didn't have a frame of reference. I do now. I bought my 2007 RSMV in May and I love everthing about it. With 19K already on, it was well broken in and the power is strong all the way through the band. A six speed would have been nice on long trips, the only reason I didn't give it 5 for performance. My bike looks and feels brand new and for $8K less than new so I am extremely pleased. I think HD's are too expensive for what you get. The only thing my bike doesn't have that HD's do are the HD insignia's and carburation instead of FI. One pet peeve - a cassette player? Come on man! Great Bike!

Actually, the year is not over and Winter riding is never out of the question. My wife looks forward to the next ride at every opportunity. I like riding for two reasons: the preparation and the journey to and from. Just finished replacing brake pads, fluids, air filters, oil filter, spark plugs, and greasing moving parts on 36,000 miles. I did this before and get the same results. It's just like riding a new, broken-in bike. Since my 20,000 mile review I've installed front fender trim and little chrome doo-dads. Been to Missouri and all in between, and San Antonio, Texas this year. At this point I have half of the 5-year warranty left. Only warranty claim was for a faulty fuel pump. Hopefully that is all that is faulty until the year 2020. Next year I'll put some Baron pipes and see if the sound is to my liking. By then, at the rate of local legislation, I'm hoping my pipes will be legal.

Roadliner Midnight is all around a better bike for those who want to ride, then ride some more. (sorry HD, just my opinion) Service and staff has been great. My time is spent on the road with cofidence that the bike will not let me down. 113ci and 1854 cc is all you need for long trips.

With the odometer at 5400 miles now, I feel it is broken in. The motor hasn't missed a beat yet and the exhaust seems a little throatier now. The bike (other than a horrible stock seat) has been wonderful out of the box. I'm getting 42 - 44 mpg at 60 mph and about 38 - 40 mpg at 70 mph. The bike...

The bike (other than a horrible stock seat) has been wonderful out of the box. I'm getting 42 - 44 mpg at 60 mph and about 38 - 40 mpg at 70 mph. The bike runs reasonably cool even in the heat down here. Handling and balance are nothing short of superb. I'll be keeping this one for quite a while.
