2006 Yamaha XV1700 Road Star Warrior — Fresh Florida Import — £6,995

American Cruiser UK is delighted to offer this outstanding 2006 Yamaha XV1700 Road Star Warrior, a muscular, beautifully engineered performance cruiser with true American-market presence and unmistakable Yamaha quality.

This particular example has just arrived from sunny Florida and presents in stunning condition throughout. It has had just 1 owner from new and has covered only 21,639 miles, making it a superb opportunity to own one of Yamaha’s most distinctive big V-twin machines.

A Brief History of the Yamaha XV1700 Road Star Warrior

When Yamaha introduced the Road Star Warrior in the early 2000s, it was not designed to be just another cruiser. It was Yamaha’s answer to riders who loved the look, torque and road presence of a traditional big-bore V-twin, but wanted sharper handling, stronger braking and a more aggressive riding character.

Based around Yamaha’s proven Road Star bloodline, the Warrior took the familiar long, low cruiser silhouette and injected it with a serious performance edge. At its heart sits a mighty 1,670cc air-cooled, fuel-injected V-twin engine, delivering the kind of deep, effortless torque that makes every ride feel special. Unlike many cruisers of its era, the Warrior was engineered with performance in mind, using a lightweight aluminium frame, inverted front forks, strong disc brakes and belt drive for smooth, low-maintenance power delivery.

The result was a machine with real attitude: part muscle bike, part custom cruiser, and part Japanese engineering showcase. It gained a loyal following for its blend of reliability, torque, styling and rarity, and today the XV1700 Road Star Warrior is becoming increasingly sought after by riders who want something different from the usual cruiser crowd.

This Bike

This 2006 example is a particularly eye-catching machine, benefiting from the upgraded five-spoke alloy wheels — a highly desirable look and not something commonly found on UK-market bikes. The stance is long, low and powerful, with the broad rear end, sculpted tank and muscular V-twin giving the bike huge road presence from every angle.

Having come from Florida, this Warrior has the look and feel of a well-kept dry-climate import. The condition throughout is stunning, with the bike presenting beautifully and ready to be enjoyed.

Preparation & Recent Work

This Yamaha has been checked and prepared, with key maintenance items already attended to, including:

Oil level checked and confirmed correct
New fork seals fitted
New front tyre fitted — Avon Spirit
New rear tyre fitted — Avon Cobra
Front and rear brake fluid changed
Custom exhaust tip fitted

The custom exhaust tip gives the bike a deep, purposeful V-twin lope without taking away from the refined Yamaha feel. It sounds exactly as a big-bore cruiser should — rich, muscular and full of character.
