Yamaha ’s recent 1990s rendering of the cruiser conception differed from that of most other manufacturers , particularly in theenginedepartment .
Whereas the traditional chemical formula address for a 45 - degree V - twin , this Nipponese company choose a different route .
First of all , it ’s not a V - twin at all , but rather a atomic number 23 - four . Cylinder banks of the 1300 - millilitre engine are separated by 70 level , and each is topped with double - overhead cams .
Though the cylinders have Phoebe mould into them , the locomotive engine is mainly pee cooled . And concluding drive is by shaft .
Elsewhere the Royal Star is perhaps more conventional , though the strange mould spoke wheel are almost completely hidden by the largebrake discs .
But what really limit the 1997 Yamaha Royal Star Palamino Edition motorcycle apart are the fine details .
Cream opalescent rouge is accented with tan imitation leather on the seat , saddlebags , and tankful strap , all of which are also constellate . Even the hand grip are covered in matching material , and chrome trim burst .
