Yamaha Xvs1300a Midnight Star

The Yamaha Xvs1300a Midnight Star has a top speed of 175 km/h (estimated; note: manufacturer did not officially publish a top speed figure), produces 63 hp and weighs 308 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

Yamaha XVS1300A Midnight Star diperkenalkan pada tahun 2007 sebagai penerus XVS1100A V-Star Classic, menampilkan mesin V-twin 1304cc yang lebih besar dengan gaya cruiser yang lebih halus yang ditujukan untuk pasar touring dan custom cruiser. Ini menawarkan perpaduan estetika kapal penjelajah klasik Amerika dengan keandalan teknik Jepang, bersaing langsung dengan kapal penjelajah ukuran menengah Harley-Davidson. Model ini terkenal karena injeksi bahan bakar, penggerak poros, dan ergonomi yang nyaman, tetap diproduksi hingga pertengahan 2010-an sebelum dihapus.

Apa yang Harus Diketahui Pembeli

🔧

Rock-Solid Reliability

The XVS1300A shares its engine architecture with the proven V-Star lineup, giving it an excellent long-term reliability record with minimal major mechanical failures reported even beyond 50,000 miles.

⚠️

Watch the Fuel Pump

A known weak point is the fuel pump, which can fail prematurely and cause stalling or hard starts — inspect service records and budget around $150-$300 for a replacement if buying used.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Midnight Star holds its value better than many cruisers in its class due to its attractive blacked-out styling and broad appeal, making it a smart buy that's also easy to sell later.

7.8/10

"Penjelajah halus dan tampan yang membuatnya aman."

Model 1304cc menarik dengan otoritas asli dari sekitar 2.500 rpm — angka torsi 110 Nm itu bukan masalah pemasaran, itulah yang membuat penyalip jalan raya terasa mudah dan gulungan throttle yang malas benar-benar memuaskan. Injeksi bahan bakar mulus, start instan, dan ketinggian kursi 690mm yang rendah berarti sebagian besar pengendara menanam kedua kaki tanpa drama, yang membangun kepercayaan diri dengan cepat. Meskipun demikian, 317kg bukanlah jumlah yang kecil — putaran U kecepatan lambat di tempat parkir akan membuat Anda rendah hati, dan shock belakang tunggal terasa murah untuk sepeda dalam kelompok harga ini, mengubah jalan tengah yang berombak menjadi negosiasi. Gaya gaya adalah retro yang jujur daripada mencoba mengalahkan Harley Harley, dan rekor keandalan Yamaha berarti Anda tidak mungkin terdampar, tetapi motor ini tidak akan menggairahkan Anda; itu hanya akan bekerja, terlihat bagus melakukannya, dan membuat Anda cukup nyaman untuk berkendara lebih jauh dari yang Anda rencanakan.

Kelebihan

+Torsi rpm rendah yang kuat dan dapat diakses
+Injeksi bahan bakar sempurna, start instan
+Kursi rendah, kepercayaan diri ramah pemula
+Gaya klasik menua dengan baik
+Keandalan Yamaha antipeluru

Kekurangan

317kg menghukum kesalahan kecepatan lambat
Shock belakang tunggal terasa murah
65hp membatasi hadiah berkendara yang penuh semangat
Perlindungan angin pada dasarnya tidak ada
Terbaik untuk: Pengendara kapal penjelajah jalan raya yang berfokus pada kenyamanan Lewati jika: Anda mendambakan menikung atau kegembiraan

Ulasan Pembeli Bekas

7.5/10
Terbaik untuk
Average-height riders wanting effortless highway cruising

"A refined, underrated cruiser that rewards patient used buyers handsomely."

$5,500-$8,500 used

The Midnight Star is Yamaha's answer to the cruiser question nobody was really asking — but damn if they didn't nail it anyway. That 1304cc V-twin pulls hard from basically nothing, with a fat midrange torque curve that makes highway overtaking genuinely satisfying rather than a white-knuckle gamble. The Star-branded bikes were built to last, and most examples you'll find have been babied by weekend warriors who bought them for the look and barely scraped past 10,000 miles. Used examples typically show up in good shape, but check the front forks for seal weeping and inspect the shaft drive output for any play — it's rare but expensive to fix. The riding position suits average-height riders perfectly, though anyone over six feet will feel cramped within an hour. Stock exhaust is aggressively quiet for a cruiser, so most used bikes have aftermarket pipes already fitted, which usually improves the soundtrack considerably without killing reliability.
