2018 Yamaha Star Eluder bagger in Impact Blue (Photo by Drew Ruiz)
Based on the Star Venture platform, Yamaha’s Star Eluder is a bagger that foregoes the trunk and passenger backrest as well as several other touring amenities. The result is a lighter, sleeker, more affordable touring motorcycle powered by the same air-cooled 113ci V-twin (which sends 111 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheel), has the same modern, muscular styling and is also equipped with state-of-the-art technology.
