Pure Bliss

Let just inform you that I never even road a motorcycle prior to this other that temporarily stealing my sons 2006 Roadliner and i'm 53. I was hooked, I went out and acquired my learners permit took the Pa driving course which is an excellent program and have been riding my own 2007 Roadliner S ever... since and enjoying every moment. Of all the bikes I have sat on (and prior to buying it was a lot)the Roadliner and the Raider just felt right. With all that your getting for the money Harley needs to watch out and start lowering their prices or they will lose out in the end.The look, feel and comfort in riding this bike is amazing..

What a Great Bike!

I just bought a new 2007 Star Roadliner S. What a fantastic bike, I traded in a 2005 Road Star that was customized from front to back. I love the Roadliner, when I first saw them I wasn't sure about the looks but I guess they grew on me. I had been contemplating buying a Harley Davidson but they ...seem to be so over priced for what you get and I'm not impressed with the some of the people who buy HD's. I guess they are trying to be the toughies they weren't in high school. I'm glad I got the Star, another great product from the people at Yamaha, well engineered from front to back! I have to get some miles on it before I start modifying this one :)
Thanks for a great bike.

Awesome!

This bike is outstanding. Plenty of power with a ton of looks. The roadliner turns and handles like a much smaller bike. This bike out of the factory is awesome. The handlebars reach out to you not leaving you leaning forward, but able to sit back and enjoy the road. Very worth the price. Read Full Review

Great bike! Just my size.

Ok...This is three years after the fact but worth pointing out. I'm 6'3" 255lbs. Not a small man in any sense of the word small. I have looked all over for a bike that was classy, timeless, and big enough for me. Voila! The Roadliner.



It has plenty of punch for a man my size with all of the... nimble handling that any experienced rider would crave. I'm in the southern Oregon region and am constantly cruising up hills and mountains with my ole lady in tow. This rig has never let me down. Torque to spare in every occasion. Plus, the windy roads in the Cascade range are a joy on this bike. SMOOTH is an understatement.

Not much to complain about. I will upgrade the saddle to a Corbin model. Throw on one of luggage solutions and call it a wrap. Bike to bagger in a heartbeat without losing any of the class and style.

Simply put...I love this bike. Read Full Review

motor rattle driving me crazy!!!

I baught a 2005 road star 1700 last year 2008. I thought it was a great bike I noticed a loud rattle in the motor. I brought it back to the dealer I got it from to see if there was something wrong with the motor.they told me that it was supposed to sound like that.After bringing it back three more t...imes decided to trade it off. The dealer gave me my money back minus the 400 dollars I paid for the windshield and for 1500.dollars they had a 2007 roadliner which is a very nice bike. I have about 2000 miles on this one and it has the same motor rattle. They claim it is because of the push rods or something like that.Is anybody else having this problem. Don't know if I can trust it for a long ride. called yamaha manufacturer not any help.
