Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2012, 2013
Dramatic looks and a mighty engine, all packed in a shiny black menacing livery with blazing chromed accents, the 2012 Yamaha XV1900A Midnight Star is a classic cruising machine which delivers outstanding performance and was engineered to really go the distance. The bike screams power and attitude and actually feels more compact than your off-the-mill cruiser, especially with the fat pull-back bars and the massive tank whose lines are beautifully continued with the beefy headlight.
With impressive torque available right off idle, the 2012 Yamaha XV1900A Midnight Star will surprise the rider with its nimble character and slow-speed handling, while longer hauls at highway speed are a truly easy thing for he massive v-twin.
