  • The industry standard for V-twin excellence features 102-cubic-inch (1670cc) displacement, pumping out asphalt-ripping torque and acceleration.

  • Air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV, 48-degree cylinders with pushrod valve actuation keeps engine height down; large cooling fins, ceramic composite bore plating and a one-piece head cover provide more efficient heat dissipation.

  • Four-valve cylinder head design uses two spark plugs per cylinder for efficient combustion and more power at all rpm.

  • Hydraulic valve lifters driven by twin camshafts deliver exceptional performance and lower maintenance needs.

  • Forged pistons accommodate higher rpm performance thanks to reduced reciprocating mass.

  • Rare earth flywheel magnet for faster-revving power delivery and increased high rpm durability.

  • Twin-bore fuel injection with throttle position sensor (TPS), aspirated by free-breathing twin air cleaner system, ensures optimal fuel delivery, great throttle response and maximum power throughout the rev range.

  • State-of-the-art electronic control unit (ECU) ensures precisely metered fuel delivery and optimal ignition spark control using 3-D digital ignition mapping for each cylinder.

  • High-performance two-into-one exhaust system features stainless-steel headers and a massive muffler that boosts horsepower while putting out a throaty V-twin growl.

  • Dry-sump lubrication system uses a handy spin-on filter.

  • Smooth-shifting five-speed transmission features close-ratio gearing for excellent roll-on performance at all rpm.

  • Smooth, low-maintenance belt drive system has a narrow-design belt that reduces unsprung weight for improved rear suspension performance.

  • Electric starting system features solenoid-activated auto-decompressor for easy starting.

  • Specially designed, class-exclusive, aluminum double-cradle frame and swingarm increases rigidity by 41 percent (over standard Road Star frame) for tremendous strength and durability.

  • Super-rigid 41mm Kayaba inverted telescopic fork in beefy, cast-aluminum triple clamps gives 5.3 inches of travel for exceptional sport-oriented performance.

  • Link-type, preload and rebound adjustable single shock delivers outstanding rear-wheel tracking for precise handling and plush ride quality.

  • Dual 298mm front disc brakes and radial-mount four-piston calipers and a 282mm rear disc combine for incredible, supersport-spec stopping power.

  • Pulley design gets all that power to the back wheel with even more style.

  • Lightweight, Supersport-inspired five-spoke cast wheels wear low-profile, competition-spec 120/70-ZR18 front and a massive 200/50-ZR17 rear radial for awesome traction and cornering grip.

  • Extra-long, 65.6-inch wheelbase and deep, plush saddle create added rider comfort and well-balanced handling.
  •  

    Additional Features:

     

  • Industry-leading Star family fit and finish features lustrous paint and chrome accents (air cleaner, air scoop, mirrors and more) to create a machine as stunning as it is powerful.

  • Two-piece saddle is wide and flat for excellent comfort.

  • Digital headlight-mounted tachometer, odometer and dual tripmeters with triple clamp-mounted analog speedometer.

  • LED taillight provides excellent visibility and very clean look.

  • Braided stainless clutch and throttle cables.

  • Extra-wide, 4.0-gallon fuel tank features low-fuel warning light and R1-type automatic fuel tripmeter.

  • Fork lock integrated into main ignition switch for extra convenience.

  • Powerful 12V 60/55-watt multi-reflector halogen headlight maximizes nighttime visibility and comes with beautiful chrome finish.
