YAMAHA Road Star Warrior (2006-2007) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha Road Star Warrior was a cruiser machine that combined the classic style of cruiser motorcycles with modern technology, resulting in a low and mean street warrior. The bike was first released in 2002 and continued production until 2010.

In 2006, the Japan-based motorcycle company launched the Yamaha Road Star Warrior, a cruiser motorcycle in its fifth year of production, wearing the same specifications as previous models without any significant modifications.

The bike packed the same standard features as previous models, including a single headlight unit, a pulled-back handlebar, a stylish teardrop-styled fuel tank, a two-piece dual seat, a single chromed exhaust system, and five-spoke lightweight wheels.

The cruiser machine was built around a lightweight double-cradle aluminum frame, offering excellent strength and durability with minimal flex. The bike's aluminum frame was the first in the industry for a cruiser motorcycle.

Suspension-wise, the frame was coupled to a 41 mm Kayaba inverted telescopic fork on the front, offering 135 mm of travel and link-type preload and rebound-adjustable shock absorber on the rear, providing 110 mm of travel.

The bike glided on an 18-inch rim on the front, stopped by two 298 mm discs with four-piston calipers and a 17-inch rim on the rear coupled to a 282 mm disc and a single-piston caliper.

At the center of the 2006 Yamaha Road Star Warrior was a 1,670cc four-stroke V-twin air-cooled engine that delivered 84 hp with a peak force at 4,400 rpm and 99 Nm (135 lb-ft) torque at 3,750 rpm.
