YAMAHA Road Star Warrior (2008-2009) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha Road Star Warrior was a cruising machine made by Yamaha from 2002 until 2010. The bike combined a classic design complemented by modern technology, resulting in a low and mean warrior.

In 2008, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha Road Star Warrior, a cruiser similar to the previous model, packing the exact technical, visual, and performance specifications without any significant modifications.

The 2008 motorcycle was equipped with standard features, such as a round headlight, a wide, pulled-back handlebar, a teardrop-shaped tank, a two-piece dual seat, a side stand, a two-into-one exhaust system with a single silencer mounted on the right side, and five-spoke lightweight alloy wheels.

The massive machine was controlled by a 41 mm Kayaba inverted telescopic fork with 135 mm travel on the front and a rebound and preload-adjustable link-type shock absorber on the rear with 110 mm of travel.

The braking performance was handled by two 292 mm discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the 18-inch front wheel and a 282 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the 17-inch rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.

In the performance department, the 2008 Yamaha Road Star Warrior had its heartbeat set by a 1,670cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine fed by a fuel injection system, boasting 84 hp with maximum strength at 4,400 rpm and 99 Nm (135 lb-ft) torque at 3,750 rpm.
