So, you're in search for a classic bobber, but feel like treading other paths than those almost all riders choose. Take a closer look at the 2013 Road Star S and maybe you've found an answer to your prayers.
The 2013 Road Star S brings a lot of classic features one could ever want on a bike in this class: plenty of lush chomed parts,a fat front tire and a massive V-twin engine capable of low-rpm asphalt-scorching torque and highway speed to shame the others, alike.

Now, stainless steel-braided throttle and clutch cables is one thing you just don't meet on every bike, and the Star Motorcycles paint job and finish can rival those on high-priced custom motorcycles, too.

The 1670cc (102 ci) engine provides immense torque just off idle revs and this allows the 2013 Road Star S to brag on a fantastic acceleration and thrilling engine feel. The belt final drive offers max riding fun and efficiency with a minimal maintenance, while the whole beast is kept under control by means of dual 298mm discs and a rear 320mm one. The adjustable rear shock has been ticked out of sight for a neat, old-school look.

A thin, flat instrument cluster sists atop the fuel tank, offering crucial riding data without damaging the sleek design of the 2013 Road Star S. Full-sized floorboards and classic pulled-back handlebar ensure a comfortable riding position, while the sculpted seat grants a pleasant ride for hours.

The 2013 Road Star S is available in a Raven black color scheme for a base price of $13,790 (€10,817).
