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.
Модель Yamaha XVS1300A Midnight Star была представлена в 2007 году в качестве преемника модели XVS1100A V-Star Classic. Она оснащена увеличенным V-образным двигателем объемом 1304 куб. см и более изысканным круизным стилем, предназначенным для рынка туристических и кастомных круизеров. Он сочетал в себе классическую американскую круизную эстетику и японскую инженерную надежность и составлял прямую конкуренцию среднеразмерным крейсерам Harley-Davidson. Модель отличалась системой впрыска топлива, приводом на вал и удобной эргономикой. Она выпускалась до середины 2010-х годов, а затем была снята с производства.

Что следует знать покупателям
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.

"Гладкий, красивый крейсер, который не рискует перестраховаться."
Двигатель объемом 1304 куб. см уверенно развивает скорость около 2500 об/мин. Этот крутящий момент 110 Нм — это не пустая шутка, ведь обгоны по шоссе не требуют особых усилий, а ленивое вращение дроссельной заслонки доставляет истинное удовольствие. Система впрыска топлива плавная, запуск двигателя происходит мгновенно, а низкая высота сиденья составляет 690 мм, что позволяет большинству мотоциклистов без лишних усилий встать на ноги, что позволяет быстро обрести уверенность в себе. Тем не менее, 317 кг — это не малая цифра: медленные развороты на парковке не оставят вас равнодушными, а один задний амортизатор вполне уступает мотоциклу такого ценового сегмента, а неустойчивые дороги на средних поворотах превратят его в сложную задачу. Стиль — это скорее ретро, а не попытка превзойти Harley Harley Harley, а послужной список надежности Yamaha означает, что вы вряд ли окажетесь в затруднительном положении, но этот мотоцикл вас не впечатлит: он просто будет работать, хорошо выглядеть и позволит вам с комфортом ехать дальше, чем вы планировали.

Отзыв покупателя б/у
"A refined, underrated cruiser that rewards patient used buyers handsomely."
$5,500-$8,500 usedThe 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.
