The V Star 1300 Tourer, with its powerful V-twin engine, sporty handling, low seat, hard bags, backrest, and windshield, returns for 2016 in Raspberry Metallic.

The V Star 1300 Tourer returns with a suggested retail price of $12,390. It will also be available in dealerships beginning in January.
For serious middleweight performance and style in a confidence-inspiring ride, you can’t beat the V Star 950 Tourer.
