The 32nd Tokyo motor show

Royal Star US Special

Exhibition model (Special import spec)


This is an American style performance machine dressed in a classic exterior. Taking the Royal Star as its base, this machine was customized around the concept of a "Wild Child." Old concepts were thrown out and free thinking brought in to create a sophisticated blend of classic styling and high-performance components like 6-pot caliper floating disc brakes and super-wide tires. This model proposes a new step forward in the evolution of the American style motorcycle. A riding position that brings to mind the stance of a football quarterback and a seamless-type frame construction that shows no welding are among the defining characteristics of the US Special.

Exhibition model (Planned as production model)


Offering a new variation on the American style bike, this is an exciting classic style version of the Drag Star which debuted at the last Tokyo Motor Show, went on sale a year later in 1996 and immediately established itself as a best seller. A revised grip angle on the upswept handlebars, a wider front tire, adoption of a larger diameter front fork and deep-arched steel fenders add refining touches to this classic styling.

It also gives constant read-outs of present location coordinates. It is also possible to record and save data on points or routes discovered by accident. Data is also transferable to a personal computer.
