Overview
Yamaha XVS 1100 V-Star Silverado
The V-Star 1100
Silverado. It's a classic, booming, big torque cruiser with a little something
extra.
Start with an
air-cooled V-twin for effortless cruising, a 17-litre tank for all-day
junkets, full rider floorboards, and much more. But when you add an adjustable
windshield, a studded backrest, studded seats and leather side bags, and
you're all set to roll for the long haul. With an extra-long wheelbase, you
can really stretch out -- just like the road in front of you.
Engine:
1,063cc, air-cooled, SOHC, 2-valve per cylinder, 75° V-twin is tuned to provide outstanding low- and mid-range torque. Maximum torque is reached at only 2,500 rpm for exceptional overall cruising performance. Forged, lightweight pistons provide great durability while reducing vibration and reciprocating mass for fast throttle response. Ceramic composite cylinder bore plating ensures superior heat dissipation for better cooling, reduced friction and longer cylinder life. This design also reduces weight since there are no heavy liners. Thick cylinder cooling fins enhance the stylish look while increasing cooling efficiency and reducing mechanical noise. Dual Mikuni BSR 37mm carburetors with throttle position sensors (T.P.S.) feature a carburetor heater and handy side-mounted air filter to ensure consistent fuel flow, great throttle response and optimum power throughout the rev range. One-way, cam clutch-type starter decreases mechanical noise during starting. Transistorized coil ignition is maintenance-free and ensures fast starts and great engine performance. Automatic cam chain tensioners and special silent design cam chains reduce both mechanical noise and maintenance. Slick shifting, 5-speed transmission is perfectly suited for both city and highway use. Low-maintenance, chrome, exposed shaft drive delivers superior reliability and smooth performance. There are no chain adjustments or messy chain splatter to worry about. 2-into-2 exhaust system with dual shotgun-style staggered pipes plays outstanding V-twin music and simplifies aftermarket conversion, if desired. Classic heel/toe shifter adds versatility and enhances overall cruising comfort. Air Induction System (A.I.S.) reduces harmful CO and HC emissions. Numerous chromed engine parts reinforce this motorcycle's quality and value.
