I would like to put the sratoliner fairing on my R*, but I bet they are expensive.

I like it a lot! Too bad that its tank is smaller than the roadstar's and yamaha still doesn't provide abs on those machines :\ Touring seats would be welcomed too

Just went on the Yamaha Canada site. Only the RoadStar and RoadStar S available with the only difference being paint. There is no R* Silverado ... and there are also other models not avaiable here. Very disappointing ...... not a good sign. Doc

Stock tribal crap graphics on a Roadstar!?!?!? Get that off there. Where's our 1900 Roadstar?

I think they are going to suffer. They have not increased the tank size, HD is 6 gallon, the tribal flames... not to everyone's liking either. Same old seats that we (most of us) hate. No changes on engine size or a 6th gear.

I hate fairings but I do like that one! roadie has had an 11 year run as it is. I suspect Yamaha has something up its sleeve. I doubt they will go 1900. Right now its 650, 950, 1100, 1300 1700 and 1900 in their cruiser line up. Seems to me they have too many engine sizes so I could see a consolidation of some sort. I just hope for god's sake they dont put radiators on all of them or I am done!

Man, I love the looks of this one. I can't wait to see it in person. Hope they have one at thier tent at Biketoberfest, coming up. I was looking to see how they finished the fairing. I couldn't find any pictures of the back side, were the radio and all is. Has anyone seen the pics of this side?

I thought that the Street Glide would probably be the next bike I would purchase but the Strat Deluxe has changed my mind.
