Yamaha Royal Star Venture Cruiser Reviews on Cycle Insider (2)
Avg. Rating

This has to be one of the smoothest most comfortable riding bikes ever. It is built for the road and boy can it gobble up the highway. The V4 engine is ultra smooth with loads of torque and HP to back it up. It likes to rev and so do I. I can't say enough good things about this bike and I got an awesome deal.

I traded in my 2005 luxury cruiser in early December and could not wait for the snow to melt so I could pick this up at the dealer. I was not disappointed at all! I had a 97 Tour Deluxe before I bought the 05 and really loved it. We were getting more into touring and wanted a bike with more features. I thought the 05 was it, but I could not adjust to the sport bike ride of the 05. This bike is absolutely the best touring bike out there, nevermind all you get for the price. The weight is no issue at all. It handles like a much lighter model. Even as my wife gets on the back there is no shift in weight and I can't feel any difference in handling riding 2-up. I couldn't believe all that the warranty covered for roadside assistance. It is better than AAA, and 5 years to boot. It is almost ready for the first service and it just keeps getting better and better. I am heading for bike week in Myrtle Beach and looking forward to the long ride down and back.
