Experience With Two Road Stars
By (I am an Owner) on Aug 09, 2010In 2005 I traded my V-Star for a new Road Star Silverado with 4 miles on the ODO. I was going to buy a Harley but "tried several Harleys on" and found that there simply was no fit! I couldn't be happier with the 05 Road Star and have put over 73,000 miles on it with absolutely no trouble. It literally ... runs like the day it was new.
A week or so ago, I had occasion to purchase a used (Total of 880 miles)2006 Road Star Midnight Silverado that was traded in to one of our our auto dealerships for a new car. One look and I jumped at the chance to buy it out of the deal and start over on mileage. What a beautiful bike!!!
Remembering that my 05 Road Star gave me absolutely no trouble, burned no oil at 73,000 miles, and ran like the day it was new, I look forward to a long wonderful relationship with the Midnight. I always try to stick with products that I have had good luck with and would recommend the Roadie to anyone looking for a great ride.

Funtastic upgrade....from Vstar to Road Star
By (I am an Owner) on Apr 20, 2010This bike is great. I got plenty of trade for my old ride at my original dealer. Never once regretted the move up with the Roadie. Tons of torque and great mileage too.Enough room for my gear on the long haul and dependable so I can do the haul at all...

Excellent Bike...
By (I am an Owner) on Feb 14, 2010Just picked up an very lightly used 06' Midnight Silverado and couldn't be happier. Traded for a Roadliner S because I like the overall feel better of the Roadie (Roadliner was a great bike, just a bit big for me around town). I didn't have many mods to the bike - air filter, some chrome, and ... pipes of course - as the Silverado's come nicely equipped. Overall, Roadie has by far the best balance I've found for around town and on the highway. Power and handling are top notch, weight is more than managable (I'm 5'10" 180lbs), and get just as many looks & compliments as my pals who have Road Kings and Fat Boy's that cost 2-3 times as much. Fantastic bike and I've found the cruiser that I'll likely keep forever...

Love my Road Star!
By (I am an Owner) on Nov 07, 2008I bought this bike as a left over this past august(08). In 3 months I have 6200 miles on it and wish winter was not coming!
This is the first bike I have had in 15 years. I will say it was a big jump after 15 years away from bikes. But I would recommend the Road Star to any one who ... has ridden at all Very well built and great combo of power and style.
