2008 Yamaha Royal Star 1300 Tour Deluxe User Ratings

After 20+ years of riding and looking for the right touring bike that is also a good around town cruiser I finally found it. I have over 25k miles on my '08 RSTD now with several long distance trips and could not be happier. the 1300 cc 4 cyl engine provides a smooth ride and the factory cruise control is just what is needed for the long ride. The large saddlebags hold all my gear. The only negative was the stock seat. I changed it for a custom seat soon after buying the bike.
