2018 YAMAHA STAR ELUDER,

Elude Conformity, and Everything Else;

;

The ultimate full dress bagger combines huge, emotional V-Twin power and near-sport tourer level handling with state-of-the-art comfort, styling and infotainment features.

;

• High Torque Engine with Cutting- Edge Rider Aids: Featuring a torque-rich 1854cc air-cooled V-twin, Star Eluder® produces smooth, effortless passing power even when fully loaded. And with ride-by-wire throttle control, traction control and selectable riding modes, the Eluder raises the bar for the classic V-twin bagger class.
• Integrated Infotainment System: With paired fairing-mounted speakers and a large, high-mounted, touch- and voice-controlled infotainment system, the Star Eluder puts the rider in command. Music, navigation, communications and vehicle systems are integrated cleanly into a single system that sets new standards for two-wheeled technology.
• Carefully-Developed Ergonomics: Star Eluder is designed around rider and passenger needs straight from the dealership floor, with a roomy rider positioning and adjustable controls. Heated seats for both rider and passenger come standard, with a low seat height for confidence at every stop.
• Advanced Chassis: Designed around a rigid chassis and advanced suspension systems, the Star Eluder is built to offer Yamaha’s renowned handling ability when the road turns twisty, with excellent comfort and straight-line confidence.
• GT Option Package: Riders that step up to the Star Eluder GT Option Package enjoy enhanced infotainment features including a CB radio, GPS navigation and SiriusXM®, as well as the confidence of an integrated security alarm system.

• High Tech Meets High Torque: A massive 1854cc air-cooled V-twin powers Star Eluder with an arm-stretching 126 pound-feet of torque, for effortless passing power even when fully loaded. And while the competition promotes their “new” four-valve cylinder heads, Yamaha has been refining the four-valve, twin-spark-plug, pent-roof engine design for nearly 20 years, delivering exceptional power and drivability that leaves the rest of the class in the dust.
