- The V Star 1300 Tourer comes standard with hard
leather-wrapped sidebags, passenger backrest and
windshield. The touring package is designed from
the factory so it’s styled consistently with the bike’s
fluid lines.
- The midsize V Star 1300 Tourer brings modern classic
styling along for a lighter, sportier, hot-rodinspired
ride.
- 80-cubic-inch (1304cc) liquid-cooled, fuel-injected
V-twin produces excellent power across the board
along with a highly stimulating exhaust note
- Modern-classic design, including a flangeless gas
tank and two-into-one exhaust, gives the V Star 1300
that distinctive Star look.
- Steel chassis gets 48 percent of the bike’s
weight on the front tire, for quick, light handling
and maneuverability.
- Authentic cruiser features such as belt drive,
steel fenders and fuel tank, open up the customization
possibilities even further.

rider for a more relaxed riding position.

for improved comfort, and it allows riders to touch the ground
easily.

- The 1304cc (80 cubic inches), 60-degree, SOHC, V-twin engine
delivers smooth power to the ground, while maintaining the classic
big cruiser sound and pulse characteristics.
- Fuel injected—each cylinder is fed by its own injector spraying
into twin 36mm intake valves, while the twin bore design allows
the computer-controlled system to feed a precise amount of fuel/air mixture to the engine. The result is strong, smooth and seamless
performance across the full range of engine rpm.
- Four valves per cylinder (36mm intake, 32mm exhaust) provide
optimum combustion efficiency; roller rocker arms reduce
friction for better performance and reduced wear.
- Ceramic composite cylinder sleeves contain 100mm forged
pistons for excellent durability and longevity.
- 9.5:1 compression ratio and aggressive cam timing produce
plenty of power across the board and a distinctive exhaust note.
- Forged connecting rods ride a single crankpin for true V-twin
sound and power.
- Sly cooling system routes liquid through hidden hoses and
internal engine passages for air-cooled looks and liquid-cooled
performance. Oil filter is easy to get to but also tucked nearly
out of sight for clean, pure looks.
- The belt drive transfers power from the transmission to the
wheel with authority. The belt system is virtually maintenance free
and delivers a quicker, more impressive throttle response
feeling than a shaft drive.
- The classic cylinder fin styling of an air-cooled engine with the
consistent potency of a liquid-cooled power plant. With the
radiator set back between the down tubes discretely routed
plumbing, the V Star 1300 Tourer’s classic beauty shines through.
- Hydraulic cam chain tensioner reduces noise and maintenance.
|
- Built on a double cradle steel frame, giving the bike a rigid base
for nimble handling, while allowing enough frame flex to be
comfortable on the open road.
- The swingarm looks sweet and gives the bike its great handling
character. Mated with belt guards, the swingarm’s sleek design
is intergrated into the overall styling of the whole bike. This
allows excellent road bump absorption for all-day comfort on the
great wide open.
- 41mm fork tubes with stainless covers look great and serve up a
smooth, controlled ride.
- A thick, chromed handlebar rides in painted clamps for a
custom look.
- The fuel tank is sculpted low and sleek for style and comfort,
with a flush-fitting, aeronautical-style gas cap incorporated into
the tank’s sleek, flangeless-type design. The tank holds a generous
4.9 gallons of fuel, thanks to a remotely located sub tank
that also houses the fuel pump, for plenty of traveling range on
the open road.
- Seven-spoke cast wheels and matching rear pulley mount
fat, 16-inch tires for a cool period look albeit with big contact
patches on the road.
- Dual 298mm front and single rear disc brakes. Provides consistent
and predictable stopping power for driving in traffic or out
on the open highway.
|
- Star quality paint, chrome and detailing vie for attention wherever you look; fenders are steel not plastic.
- Retro-modern bar-mounted instrumentation contains analog
speedometer along with LCD display; indicator lights for high
beam, turn signal, low oil level, low fuel, coolant
temperature, neutral—and engine diagnostic function.
- Floating floorboards and an adjustable heel/toe shifter provide
a comfortable, low-effort ride and makes moving through the
5-speed gearbox a snap.
- Bright multi-reflector headlight and amber turn signals behind
clear lenses give a custom look.
- Oxygen sensor and catalyst reduce emissions.
