• NAVIGATION COMES STANDARD: The V Star 1300 Deluxe is equipped with a rugged, waterproof Garmin® zumo® 665 GPS. Features include motorcycle-friendly navigation, including weather and traffic conditions (if subscribed to monthly service), lane assist, and 3D building view. XM® satellite radio (with subscription) and Bluetooth® wireless functionality.
• FACTORY HARD LUGGAGE: Color-matched, lockable hard side bags have spacious room for long trips or commuting, and each has 7.6 gallons of volume.
• CLASSIC CRUISER STYLING: Real steel fenders make V Star 1300 Deluxe ideal for customization.
• READY TO CUSTOMIZE: The Star® Accessories Catalog is packed full of high-quality parts that invite Star owners to fully express their individuality.
• SMOOTH, POWERFUL ENGINE: The 80-cubic (1304cc) liquid cooled SOHC 60° V-twin engine, with four valves per cylinder, 9.5:1 compression ratio and dual counterbalancers, delivers smooth power to the ground, while maintaining the classic big cruiser sound and pulse characteristics.
• COMPACT, LOW FRICTION CAM DRIVE: To keep friction loss to a minimum and help the engine achieve the ideal performance characteristics, special compact roller-type rocker arms with needle bearings are used. These also reduce top-end weight for excellent mass centralization.
• HIGH PERFORMANCE CYLINDER HEADS: Four valves per cylinder (36mm intake, 32mm exhaust) provide optimum combustion efficiency. Roller rocker arms reduce friction for better performance and reduced wear.
• ADVANCED CYLINDER DESIGN: Ceramic-composite-plated cylinders provide excellent heat dissipation, high durability and reduced oil consumption.
• FORGED PISTONS: High-quality forged aluminum 100mm pistons have a lightweight, high-strength compact design that contributes to high performance and reduce vibration.
• CLASSIC V-TWIN SOUND: Forged connecting rods ride a single crankpin for true V-twin sound and power.
• YAMAHA FUEL INJECTION: Sophisticated twin bore fuel injection is used on the V Star 1300 Tourer. Each cylinder is fed by its own injector spraying into twin 40mm throttle bodies, while the computer-controlled system provides a precise amount of fuel/air mixture to the engine for optimal performance in all conditions. The result is strong, smooth and seamless performance across the full range of engine rpm.
• SMOOTH SHIFTING TRANSMISSION: The 5-speed transmission has a smooth shifting feeling, and gear ratios spaced to let the rider take full advantage of the engine’s torque characteristics and enjoy comfortable riding while cruising down the boulevard or at highway speeds.
• LOW MAINTENANCE BELT FINAL DRIVE: The belt drive transfers power from the transmission to the wheel with authority. The belt system is clean, quiet and virtually maintenance-free and delivers a quicker, more impressive throttle response feeling than a shaft drive.
• CLEANLY STYLED MOTOR: The classic cylinder fin styling of an air-cooled engine with a sly cooling system that routes liquid through hidden hoses and internal engine passages for air-cooled looks and liquid-cooled performance. Oil filter is easy to get to but also tucked nearly out of sight for clean looks.
• SMOOTH, AGILE CHASSIS: Built on a double cradle steel frame, giving the bike a rigid base for nimble handling, while allowing enough frame flex to be comfortable on the open road. Mated with belt guards, the swingarm’s sleek design is integrated into the overall styling of the whole bike. This allows excellent road bump absorption for all-day comfort on the great wide open.
• PLUSH SUSPENSION: Front forks feature big 41mm fork tubes with stainless covers that look great and the rear suspension is a bottom-link-type Monocross system with a gas charged single shock and adjustable spring preload. Settings are calibrated to deliver a plush ride that is increasingly firm as the suspension is compressed for good handling and comfort over bigger bumps in the road.
• COMFORTABLE SADDLE: The shape of the seat has been designed with a “dish” shape for great comfort, and it allows riders to touch the ground easily.
• REAL STEEL FENDERS: Fenders are real steel, front and rear. That adds to the quality look and feel, and makes customization easier.
• TOUR-READY FUEL CAPACITY: The fuel tank is sculpted low and sleek for style and comfort, with a flush-fitting, aeronautical-style gas cap incorporated into the tank’s sleek design. The tank holds a generous 4.9 gallons of fuel, thanks to a remotely located sub tank that also houses the fuel pump, for plenty of traveling range on the open road.
• STYLISH CAST WHEELS: Seven-spoke aluminum wheels and matching rear pulley mount fat, 16-inch tires for a cool period look albeit with big contact patches on the road.
• POTENT TRIPLE DISC BRAKES: Dual 298mm front and single rear disc brakes. Provides consistent and predictable stopping power for driving in traffic or out on the open highway.
• FULL COVERAGE FAIRING: The fork-mounted color matched fairing offers riders great weather protection, dynamic, sporty good looks, and houses dual high performance neodymium speakers that offer great sound when cruising down the road.
• INTEGRATED AUDIO: A fully integrated dash and audio system with iPod®/iPhone® compatibility. Riders can control their music on a control pod located on the left handlebar.
• NAVIGATION COMES STANDARD: The V Star 1300 Deluxe is equipped with a rugged, waterproof Garmin® zumo 665 GPS. Features include motorcycle-friendly navigation, including weather and traffic conditions (if subscribed to monthly service), lane assist, and 3D building view. XM® satellite radio (with subscription) and Bluetooth® wireless functionality.
• FACTORY HARD LUGGAGE: Color match, lockable hard side bags have spacious room for long trips or commuting, and each has 7.6 gallons of volume.
• STAR FIT AND FINISH: Star quality paint, chrome and detailing vie for attention wherever you look; fenders are steel not plastic. A 3D tank emblem design adorns the V Star 1300 Deluxe and evokes a modern-classic look.
• COMPLETE INSTRUMENTATION: Retro-modern bar-mounted instrumentation contains analog speedometer along with LCD display; indicator lights for high beam, turn signal, low oil level, low fuel, coolant temperature, neutral—and engine diagnostic function.
• COMFORTABLE FLOORBOARDS: Rider floorboards for comfort and room; heel/toe shifter makes moving through the five-speed gearbox a snap.
• EXCELLENT ILLUMINATION: Bright multireflector headlight, LED taillight and amber turn signals behind clear lenses give a custom look.
• CLEAN RUNNING: 02 sensor and catalyst reduce emissions.
