YAMAHARoyal Star Venture S 2010 - 2011

　　The Yamaha Royal Star Venture was a luxury touring machine manufactured by Yamaha in two forms. The first version was introduced in 1983 and continued production until 1993, while the second version debuted in 1999 and continued production until 2013.

　　In 2010, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha Royal Star Venture S, a luxury touring motorcycle identical to the base model but with additional visual features, like more chrome and paint job.

　　The bike was fitted with standard features, such as an aerodynamic front cowl with a round headlight, a teardrop-styled fuel tank, a two-piece dual seat with passenger backrest and armrests integrated into the top case, side-mounted hard-shell panniers, a dual exhaust system, and seven-spoke lightweight wheels shod with fat tires.

　　In addition, the S version was packed with more chromed elements than the base model, including a headlight ring, front fork legs, engine covers, exhaust system, and several other bits and pieces here and there.

　　Like other Royal Star models, the Venture S was built around a single-backbone steel frame with a 43 mm air-assisted telescopic fork on the front, offering 140 mm of travel and an air-assisted link-type shock absorber on the rear with 105 mm of travel.

　　At its core, the 2010 Yamaha Royal Star Venture S had installed a 1,294cc four-stroke V4 liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 98 hp and 121 Nm (89 lb-ft) torque at 4,750 rpm.

　　At the time of its release, the 2010 Yamaha Royal Star Venture S was for sale with an MSRP of $19,700.
