If the 1854cc Midnight Star is a bit overkill for you, or if you're on a tighter budget, but would still throw a leg over some awesome Yamaha cruiser machinery, maybe you should be looking into the 2013 XVS1300A Midnight Star. Boasting the same might looks and commanding neo-streamline cruiser design, the smaller Midnight Star packs in a smaller v-twin power plant in a more maneuverable and less intimidating motorcycle.
Drawing its cues from the 30s' cruisers and proudly displaying a long and low chassis, the 2012 XVS1300A Midnight Star offers a laid back riding stance with a modern approach to power and torque deployment. For relaxed riding up mountain roads or fierce acceleration on the highway, the 2012 Yamaha XVS1300A Midnight Star has all it needs.
