Yamaha Road Star Warrior
The Yamaha Road Star Warrior has a top speed of 185 km/h, produces 75 hp and weighs 302 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
ヤマハロードスターウォリアー（XV1700PC）は、ホンダVTX 1800のようなカスタムスタイルのパワークルーザーに対抗するように設計された、ロードスタープラットフォームをベースにしたパフォーマンス重視のクルーザーとして2002年に発売されました。アグレッシブなスタイリング、低めのスポーティなスタンス、アップグレードされたサスペンション、標準のロードスターと比較してよりパワフルなエンジンチューニングが特徴でした。曲がりくねった路面にも真に対応できる数少ない大排気量の空冷式Vツイン車の1つとして注目され、スポーツバイクにインスパイアされたパフォーマンスでクルーザールックを求めるライダーの間で強い支持を得ました。

購入者が知っておくべきこと
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The 1670cc air-cooled V-twin is known for exceptional long-term durability, with many owners reporting 50,000+ miles with minimal issues when properly maintained. Regular oil changes are critical, as the engine runs hot and degrades oil faster than average.
Watch the Fork Seals
A common issue on higher-mileage Warriors is leaking front fork seals, which can lead to reduced handling performance and brake contamination if ignored. Always inspect the forks carefully before buying a used example.
Strong Resale Value
The Road Star Warrior holds its value unusually well for a cruiser, largely due to its sporty styling and limited production run ending in 2009. Clean, low-mileage examples are consistently in demand and rarely depreciate sharply.

"ヤマハはついに実際の歯を備えた巡洋艦を作りました。"
ウォリアーは、エンジニアが丁寧なオートバイを作ることに飽きてきたときに起こるものです。1670ccのVツインは3,000rpmに達し、シートで真に後ろに押し込まれ、トルクカーブはずっとフラットなままです。ハンドリングは299kgという驚くほど落ち着きがあり、低く補強されたサスペンションのセットアップは、バルカンやロードスタークラシックを不安にさせるコーナーで笑いを誘います。とはいえ、駐車場や低速のUターンではウェットウェイトに引っかかり、純正のエグゾーストは、このエンジンにふさわしいものと比べると絞められた音になります。ほとんどのオーナーが最初に変えるのは、夏の交通では、熱管理も大きな問題になります。右足は、望むと望まざるとにかかわらず、ラジエーターになります。

"The cruiser that actually rewards a rider who pushes it."
$4,500-$8,500 usedThe Road Star Warrior is Yamaha's answer to the question nobody asked — what if a cruiser actually handled? That 1670cc air-cooled V-twin pulls hard from basically idle, and the chassis is genuinely sporty for something this heavy. Unlike most metric cruisers that embarrass themselves mid-corner, the Warrior holds its line with real confidence. It's the cruiser that sport bike guys don't hate riding. Used examples are generally solid, but check the front forks carefully — they're undersized for the weight and older ones develop leaks. The carbureted models run rich from factory; most used bikes have already been rejetted, which is actually good news. Heat management is the real daily enemy here. That engine bakes your right leg in traffic, no exaggeration. Plan accordingly or avoid summer commuting entirely. Parts availability is decent but not great — Yamaha discontinued the line in 2009, so some items require hunting. Find a clean 2002-2009 example under 20k miles and you've got a legitimately characterful machine that destroys boulevard cruisers in the canyons.
