The Yamaha Royal Star Venture was a touring motorcycle with a luxurious allure manufactured by Yamaha in two separate periods: from 1983 to 1993 and 1999 to 2013.

In 1983, the manufacturer created the V4 engine and installed it for the first time on the Yamaha Venture motorcycles, like the Venture Royale model, the first in the series produced from 1983 to 1993.

In 1996, the maker introduced the Royal Star model, which continued production until 2001. In 1999, Yamaha introduced a full touring machine called the Royal Star Venture, and in 2005, the Royal Star Tour Deluxe was introduced, which was basically a standard model with additional fairings, radio, and trunk.

In 2007, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha Royal Star Venture, a touring motorcycle with classic looks, modern technology, and plenty of performance to travel long distances in absolute comfort.

In the aesthetic department, the bike had standard features, such as an aerodynamic front cowl with a tall windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, a top case with an integrated pillion backrest and armrests, side-mounted color-matched panniers, a dual exhaust system, and seven-spoke lightweight aluminum wheel.
