    Used to own a 2005 model, crossed the US with it. Rock-solid bike. Changed the exhaust to have a bit more “sound” and added a power module. The only annoying issue was the high whine from the gearbox as the teeth were cut sideways for better engineering. I lost the cruise control after 22k ($400+ to replace the module). Overall, this bike is awesome. I switched for a Goldwing.

      The Royal star is a dream to ride and very smooth as this vid states but it does have a big ass and may sometimes bite. It looks mint with out the visor but you need a good grip when going over 60mph.

      The Vulcan has a bigger engine (1500 c.c.) but it's a traditional V-Twin. Not sure which one is heavier though, both have hard saddlebags. The Royal Star does have the trunk case/seat, the Nomad has a standard seat with sissy bar so I guess the Royal could be heavier P:

    They are great bikes. I have a 2007 bought 3 years ago with only 1900 miles on the odo. There are two models , Royal Star Tour Deluxe (RSTD) and Royal Star Venture (RSV), no RSTDV😀.
    Definitely sounds like clutch slip when you opened it up, common issue. Most owners to with a Barnett clutch upgrade, fixes the slipping problem! Somebody will get a truly great bike, one of the bike worlds best kept secrets...

    Hey Sean, your videos are a riot to watch. Keep spreading the good word brother.
    I'm on my third Yamaha Venture. The first one was a Gen 1 Venture. No. 2 & 3 Gen 2 Royal Star Ventures. They are the nicest bikes I've owned and I've owned a lot including a couple Electra Glides. Harley's are awesome bikes, but I would take the Royal Star Venture over the Electra Glide for styling and giddy up. I also have a Soft Tail Heritage that I've done some motor work on and the Venture will still kick it's arss in a drag race.
    The motor in the Venture, Royal Star Venture and Royal Star Tour Deluxe are essentially the same V4 that Yamaha put in the VMax. That's why they have that amazing power. They are a blast to ride and extremely comfortable.
    Keep up the good work. Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight O Lord, my strength and my redeemer.

      Ha, I bought a brand new Yamaha Venturer in 1981. Yes, I said Venturer. It was only made one year, 1981. It was the last year for the XS-11. It had a full Vetter fairing with lowers, ABS saddlebags with rails, a touring seat and oversized touring tank - 6.3 gallons. Wife and I rode it to the top of Pikes Peak from Portland and back through Reno and Tahoe. Loved that bike. Put over 30,000 miles on it.

    @itarry4 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    My only issue with this bike is the width of the tank but I'd guess that it's so you can not only put a decent amount of fuel in which it needs but also maybe its more comfy for longer riding? Not sure about that as I like the tanks with the slight dips for the knees but again a guess but as you don't lay it down around corners such a tank is unnecessary.

Ok there’s this new place called 30 sec smoothie where they make you a smoothie that gives you all the nutrients and it takes 30 sec to eat. It doesn’t need to be quick if you’re putting on and taking off your windshield that much you probably need to see someone for multiple personality syndrome.

    You need to learn a little more about the Star Line of Motorcycles, I own a 2003 Royal Star Venture 96,000 miles Beach Sand Tan/ Raspberry which by the way was the fastest one they made. lol..... They have only made the Second Generation since 96 When it was just a Royal Star with a V4 1300, which had only 74 hp until 1998 when they brought out the Royal Star Tour Deluxe. Then in 1999 they brought out the second Generation Royal Star Venture with the first Gen. V4 being built from 1983-1993 the first Gen was a Venture Royale. So they do not keep adding to the name as you said in your video. There Was the 1st Gen Venture Royale, Early Royal Star, Royal Star Tour Deluxe and the Royal Star Venture, all with the V4 power plant that was a variation of the V-max engine with the Second Gen having 96 hp which exceeds both the Harley 88, the 96, the 103, and the 107 and is real close to what the stock 114 puts out.

    I took one of these motorcycles for a test drive thinking it was the same engine that is in the Yamaha venture. I had a venture at the time. When I first pulled out, I thought that there was something wrong with the motor. It vibrated and was not smooth at all. When I got it up to speed, it was worse. I am mediately turned around and took it back to the owner, I asked him if he had two of the spark plugs out or was there something wrong with the engine because it was definitely not smooth like the Venture engine is..The guy said, this engine has a completely different crankshaft from the factory than the Venture does. They wanted to put some vibration in the motor like a Harley to make it feel like a Harley to possible Harley riders that would switch to Yamaha. yamaha took the counter balance off of the crankshaft th give the engine its thumping pulse.. I could not ride this motorcycle even a quarter of a mile. either the seller was trying to pass off a defective motorcycle on me which can’t be done, or, he was telling me straight up that this engine was different from the Venture engine.
    what he told me sort of made sense because I know that Suzuki tried something like this also with their 1400 or 1500 intruder. They knew that it was irresponsible on an engineering stance to put both rods on the Same crank pan. But Suzuki did it anyway to give her the harley feel of an engine that had a Distinctive lope to the motor, Even though it was almost irresponsible to do such a thing when they knew better

    got a question which I hope you or a viewer might know. a different reviewer of a royal Star tour deluxe explained that Yamaha tuned the engine to give it the typical twin cylinder vibration to attract more buyers. What those idiots were thinking I don't know, but have you heard if there is a way to tune out the vibration and smooth the engine idle back to 4 cylinder standards? Every bike I have owned, other than my current on was 4 or 6 cylinder and road great short or long distance. my current bike is nearly impossible to ride more than 200 miles a day. the 800 in the c50T just puts out too much vibration for long distance. thank you and love the videos.

      Vibrations are not bad at all, I have a 2009 road star tour deluxe I put 7000 miles on since last February.
      Went to the great smoky mountains
      and had no problems at all pulling up the mountains.
      I love the bike myself and find no fault in it at all
