I had a Yamaha Royal Star and I always thought it would make a super platform for extensive customization. Its a bloody big impressive whopper off the shelf with double exhausts both sides.
Also the V-4´s wide power band allows 0-120 km/h on second gear. In town I do 3 times as many gear changes on my Fat Boy because trashy high rev nature of V-2.
"I missed the press release when Honda and Yamaha announced the V twin was dead and that only inline 4s would be built for all eternity." Don't worry it's coming... long live the inline 4....
