Star V Star 950
Ever since Yamaha decided to brand all their cruiser-type models as Star, they’ve aimed towards delivering outstandingly refined machines as well as reviving legends such as the VMAX. But they were lacking new models and the all-new 2009 V Star 950 models stand as the first step towards changing that situation.
The V Star 950 was built from ground up and addresses either at riders who are just starting to ride or at those in search for the best cruiser that $8K can buy.

Star Road Star Silverado
The 2009 Star Road Star Silverado and Silverado S are ready for the long haul and don’t mind letting everyone notice this fact. Packed with floating floorboards, a tall windscreen passenger backrest as well as with hard-shell sidebags, the Silverados are comfortable and offer plenty of loading capacity.
And all of that extra load is properly dealed with loads of torque and a harmonious rumble provided by the 102-cubic-inch V-twin engine powering the two cruisers.

Star Roadliner
Basically a stripped down Stratoliner, Star’s 2009 Roadliner qualifies for the ultimate boulevard cruiser not only because of the massive engine powering it, but also due to the glamorous styling and unique riding feel. Cumulating these incontestable qualities, this model has everybody going “yes, it’s a Star” and who are we to disagree?
Available both as Roadliner Midnight and Roadliner S, this cruiser is set to find the sweet spot of riders who prefer short and non-windy rides, but also that of those who feel like buying a base motorcycle and accessorize it as their hearts demand.

Star Royal Star Venture
Star remains a strong player on the highways with the Royal Star Venture model, their ultimate tourer that carries on as a 2009 model year without changes, but clearly stands out thanks to the consecrated features such as the V-four motor and five-star accommodations.
