The throttle position sensor is linked to the ECU and supplies info about throttle opening so the ECU can adjust ignition timing for optimum engine performance at all rpms. This system features a single throttle body with dual injectors (one for each cylinder). Traditional pushrod valve actuation keeps overall engine height down for a lower centre of gravity.įorged pistons offer great durability and lightweight for fast response.Ĭeramic composite-plated cylinders provide uniform heat dissipation, reduce weight, reduce friction and increase cylinder service life.Ĭooling fin thickness is optimized for maximum heat dissipation, thereby eliminating the need for liquid cooling, maintaining that traditional clean, air-cooled engine appearance.Įlectronic fuel injection with TPS. Hydraulic valve lifters driven by twin crankcase-mounted camshafts deliver exceptional performance and reduce maintenance needs. Air cooling, hydraulic valve lifters and belt ?nal drive reduce maintenance requirements to a minimum.ġ,670cc, air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV, 8-valve, 48° V-twin powerplant pumps out lots of low-rpm torque for unparalleled acceleration and cruising performance.Ĥ valves per cylinder provide optimum breathing efficiency while 2 spark plugs per cylinder ensure complete combustion for maximum power output. – Modern engineering and materials, including ceramic composite cylinder liners. – 102-cubic-inch V-twin-powered beauty, in a long, low, hardtail-look frame, with plenty of customization potential built in. – Electronic fuel injection ensures easy cold starting and flawless fuel delivery at nearly all altitudes and in nearly any conditions. When it comes to power that fuel-injected 102-cubic-inch overhead-valve air-cooled V-twin assures the horses are never in short supply.

It looks good, due mostly to the classic appeal of that hardtail-looking steel frame and all the classic-looking hardware that goes with it. The 2009 Road Star is one of the biggest, baddest air-cooled V-twins in the business.

Legendary Star styling and attention to detail make it a rolling piece of art that you’ll be proud to ride. But “The Roadie” is more than just muscle.
