XVS1300A Midnight star

Hop on an XVS1300A Midnight Star and you'll see that laid-back, cruiser style doesn't have to mean laid-back horsepower. Its engine features forged pistons, 4-valve heads and short-stroke con-rods, so every time you hit the throttle you feel a knockout, low-down punch, that turns into serious power.

Twin balancers tune out the unwanted vibrations that can make long journeys wearing, without losing those feel-good power pulses.

And it all comes in a package of classic 1930s-inspired styling, with a tight body and low silhouette that's old-school with a radical new twist.
