Yamaha Road Star description

2008 Yamaha Road Star, Available Soon!Features:1,670cc, air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV, 8-valve, 48 V-twin powerplant pumps out lots of low-rpm torque for unparalleled acceleration and cruising performance. 4 valves per cylinder provide optimum breathing efficiency while 2 spark plugs per cylinder ensure complete combustion for maximum power output. Hydraulic valve lifters driven by twin crankcase-mounted camshafts deliver exceptional performance and reduce maintenance needs. Traditional pushrod valve actuation keeps overall engine height down for a lower centre of gravity. Large-diameter, forged pistons offer great durability and lighter weight for fast response. Ceramic composite-plated cylinders provide uniform heat dissipation, reduce weight, reduce friction and increase cylinder service life. Cooling fin thickness is optimized for maximum heat dissipation, thereby eliminating the need for liquid cooling, maintaining that traditional clean, air-cooled engine appearance.
