YAMAHA Road Star Silverado S (2010-2011) Specs, Performance & Photos

The 2010 Yamaha Road Star Silverado S made its way into the cruiser world, delivering more chrome than the standard Silverado but also additional features, such as chromed passing lights and hard, side-mounted panniers.

In addition to the S package, the Road Star range was delivered in a Silverado version with more touring-oriented features, in a Midnight trim with a blacked-out appearance, and in a Midnight Silverado version that combined the black trim of the Midnight model with touring accessories of the Silverado version.

The 2010 Silverado S had an adjustable windscreen that protected the rider against weather and debris, a round, chromed headlight joined by two smaller passing lights, and two smaller turn signals with clear lenses. The bike had two side-mounted hard panniers on the rear for extra storage and a passenger backrest.

As for ergonomics, the bike had a pulled-back handlebar, a low seating position, and floating forward-mounted floorboards, delivering a laid-back, relaxed riding position.

In the performance department, the 2010 Yamaha Road Star Silverado S had its power from a 1,670cc air-cooled V-twin engine with a new electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering 75 hp at 4,750 rpm and 112 Nm (83 lb-ft) torque at 3,500 rpm.

The stylish-designed fuel tank featured a 3D emblem and an integrated instrument panel, the wheels were covered by deeply valanced steel fenders, and the gasses produced by the engine escaped through a two-into-two chromed exhaust system.

At the time of its release in 2010, the Yamaha Road Star Silverado S had an MSRP of $15,190, while in 2023 (at the time of writing) was sold with an average price of $5,935.
