2020 Yamaha Star Venture Base

2020 Yamaha Star Venture

This "top-of-the-line" transcontinental tourer combines emotional V-Twin performance with cutting-edge comfort and technology.

Features may include:

• High Tech Meets High Torque

A massive 1854cc air-cooled V-twin powers Star Venture for effortless passing power even when fully loaded. Yamaha has been refining the four-valve, twin-spark-plug, pent-roof engine design for nearly 20 years to deliver exceptional power and drivability.

• Smooth Running and Charismatic

The Star Venture engine delivers huge torque with a thrilling V-twin pulse, and thanks to lightweight forged alloy pistons, carefully-tuned counterbalancers and advanced engine mounts, the Star Venture creates a luxuriously smooth ride ideal for days in the saddle without fatigue.

• Agile, High-Rigidity Frame

The main steel frame is tuned for optimal rigidity for excellent handling and responsiveness, while the rear subframe makes use of Yamaha’s advanced aluminum die-casting techniques to reduce weight and centralize mass even further. The balanced chassis gives the Star Venture a combination of solid straight-line stability with agility on the curviest of roads.

• Centralized Mass

Thanks to the semi-dry-sump engine, advanced frame design and careful positioning of major components, direction changes require less effort, for a more engaging ride with less fatigue.

• LED Lighting

The Star Venture features all-LED lighting to maximize illumination. LED brake lights and turn signals boost visibility, while the quad LED headlight assembly punches a huge hole in the darkness with crisp, bright light.

• Generous Luggage System

Star Venture features a cavernous 37.3 gallons of volume across the saddlebags, Tour Trunk and upper and lower fairing storage compartments. Plus, the Transcontinental Option Package offers an additional pair of easily accessible passenger storage compartments, boosting storage capacity to over 38 gallons.
