2000 Yamaha Road Star

Pros: Simplicity, terrific torque, good handling, all day comfort, great looks, well built, fabulous lines.
Cons: Not enough power, ground clearance, or brakes. Vibration related problems. Dealer service is spotty.

I started out riding as a kid, when Honda was telling everyone that you meet the nicest people on a Honda. First, there were mini bikes, then Honda Trail 50's, fell in love with riding on a Trail 90, and ultimately wandered out to the edge on a Suzuki ...

Pros: Does what a cruiser is built to do.
Cons: Can't get a tank of gas without answering a lot of questions ;-)

I have a 1999 Road Star that I purchased used, it only had 3700 miles on it and was in “like new” condition. I have been riding motorcycles since the age of 14. The Road Star is defiantly a nice bike! I have added many accessories and if I get ...

Pros: Sound, Torque, Torque, and Torque. Fit and finish, smooth ride, Great Chrome
Cons: None so Far!

This is the bike I have wanted all my life! A full 1602cc or 85ci 48 degree V-Twin Torque Monster Rules. I wanted a Royal Star since their debut in 1996 but with all the articles about lack of power, waited, and am I glad I did. With 99 foot pounds of...

Pros: Very stylish, reliable, comfortable
Cons: None unless you don't want the best

Before I go off rambling here, let me say the Road Star is with out a doubt the best bike ever made. It will be my last bike unless I upgrade to a newer year Road Star. It can not be beat in looks, reliability, easy maintenance, and comfort. I hope...

Pros: Awesome torque, Good handling, Stunning look
Cons: None so far.

I have just bought the Roadstar 2002 two weeks ago and have put about 400 miles on it. Before purchasing the bike, I did a lot of research to find out which cruiser suits me. The most good review I've read were on the Roadstar. It seems to have stand out...

Pros: Power, Comfort, and exceptional looks and plenty of Aftermarket accessories..
Cons: NONE!!!!

What can I say? Where do I start? One word....AWESOME. I was in the market for A HD Heritage Softail. After receiving the wonderful, courteous service from the local Harley dealership (NOT!!!) I decided that there must be some other avenue to approach....

Pros: Very Powerful, Like feel of engine Rumbling, Great Gas mileage, rides very smooth
Cons: Yamaha Accessories too expensive, but after market not too bad.

This is my second bike, I first had a Suzuki 650 salvage, just too small. Traded it for my 2001 Yamaha Road Star "Midnight Star" I love it, can not find anything bad about it. Plenty of power, the feel the engine gives you, the rumble at idle, just...

Pros: fantastic Power! Great Torque! Great Breaking! Good Range! Awesome Value!
Cons: It creates a lot of envy on other Bikers

I just purchased My 2001 Road Star a little over a week ago, and the power is just fantastic, the low end torque is something of a super dragster. I had the dealer Jet it and removed the ECG, installed B.A.K. (Big air kit), V&H Pipes and lots of extra...

Pros: The most chrome for your cash. Easily accessorized, dependable and beautiful.
Cons: Pipes are too quiet. Main oil drain bolt almost inaccessible

I've owned over 17 bikes over the last 20 years and this is one of the best-designed bikes I've owned. The best attributes of the Road Star are it's beautiful classic design, it's monstrous displacement (V98 cubic inches), easy to handle ergonomics due...

Pros: Looks, cost, performance
Cons: none

I originally was going to buy the HD Fat Boy but had second thoughts once I took a good long hard look at the 2001 Roadstar. I'm glad I did. The Fat Boy is a fine bike, no mistake about it, but I'm not into spending a few thousand more for the...

Pros: Looks, value, power, reliability
Cons: I don't think so

I have owned many a motor cycle in my 32 years riding and this is by far the best experience yet! I have ridden Harleys and Kawasakis, Hondas Nortons and some smaller Yamaha's, but nothing compares to the feeling of pure excitement. No problems after a...

Pros: Excellent handling, quality and cost.
Cons: Very poor accessories.

I bought a 2000 Road Star just 3 weeks ago. I chose this bike because it just seemed to fit me and it had the look and feel I wanted, without the high price. Also, I have a 32" inseam and, though it could be 1" lower, I did not have any...

Pros: Beautiful, gobs of torque.
Cons: None I could see.

Road Star

The 2000 Yamaha Road Star is a big V-Twin cruiser with muscle to spare.

Sporting an air-cooled 48-degree V-Twin motor, the Road Star takes advantage of the old technology familiar to Harley riders with a few refinements...

Pros: Big torque evenly delivered at all engine speeds, great looks, sweet exhaust note when accelerating.
Cons: Almost too quiet.

I bought my 2000 Road Star because it was love at first sight. The long lines and classic style captured my full attention and my motor lovin heart. I have 2600 miles on it now and still can't get enough. Just prowling around, its a sweet mellow ride...

Pros: Looks , feels and rides Great!
Cons: Some of the dealers jack up the price.

I was on a motorcycle from the time I was a small kid, until I went into the Military at the age of 20. I actually got a class M drivers license before I was licensed to drive a car. After 16 years of being off of two wheels, I finally gave in to...
