The 2012 Yamaha Roadliner S doesn’t come with a whole
lot of changes compared to the previous models, and that might be a good
thing. It still has that unmistakable neo-streamline design that gives
it a completely distinctive look. Add a long and low aluminum frame
that provides great looks and light handling with one of the biggest
engines on the market, and you have a bike that’s definitely worth your
hard-earned money. Speaking about a few features of the bike, the
sculpted seat provides an excellent place to sit on long rides. The
Roadliner S also gets plenty of chrome treatment, including the chrome
switchgear, front brake and clutch master cylinders and levers, the belt
guard, fork and fork covers, handlebar clamps, a shifter, a front
pulley cover, various engine covers, a rear fender stay, and polished
wheels.
The Roadliner S will also be carrying a
1,854cc air-cooled, pushrod V-twin engine that produces great thrust at
any speed. That’s added to a twin-bore downdraft electronic fuel
injection, providing optimum engine efficiency and throttle response in
the widest possible range of conditions. Despite the monster engine,
Roadliner S achieves an estimated fuel economy of 42 mpg with a fuel
tank that holds 4.5 gallons of gas.
Handling is also
aces with the Roadliner S. We already talked about the lightweight
aluminum frame, but the bike also has a light, controlled-Fill die-cast
swingarm that complements the bike’s streamline style and reduces
unsprung weight for great handling. Add 46mm fork tubes that serve up an
excellent ride and a tucked-out-of-sight single shock with adjustable
spring preload and there’s no mistaking what the Roadliner S has to
offer.
