The Yamaha Royal Star Venture is a touring motorcycle introduced by Yamaha Motor Company in 1996. It was a full-dress touring motorcycle with a 1,294 cc (79.1 cu in) liquid-cooled, four-stroke, V4 engine, shaft drive and large capacity fuel tank. It was intended as a replacement for the Venture Royale, and featured numerous luxury amenities such as cruise control, heated seats, electrically adjustable windshield, AM/FM/cassette audio, and adjustable air suspension. The Royal Star Venture had plenty of power and great handling which made it an excellent choice for long rides. Production of the Royal Star Venture ended in 2013, when it was replaced by the Star Eluder.
