presentation of the XVS 1300 A Tour Classic 2015
Sleek, elegant, rewarding, dynamic, chubby without being overweight, the 1300 Midnight Star could be a good-sized cruiser if it had protection worthy of the name. Without having the fatness and opulence of the 1900, its 1304 cm3 v-twin offers just the right measure of power. It would almost tickle the fancy of bigger rivals without asking the price. With the "Tour Classic" kit, the custom bike becomes a V Star Tourer (its American version).
the 1300 Midnight Star packs all the essentials to open up wide roads and horizons. Long roads and windy conditions call for a large windshield. A long-distance passenger will appreciate the Sissy-bar for lumbar support. As for your personal belongings, they'll take their place in the two hard-sided leather saddlebags. With this equipment, the bike weighs in at around twenty kilos. But that won't make much difference, given the original 3 quintals. In a similarly roadworthy but visually more assertive register, this 1300 now cohabits with the CFD. Cruisers can now choose between a Street Glide-style fork head or a large windscreen.

Efficient bike just for fetching bread Rating : 1/5 Respond to Ben
Mine is from 01/2015 and I'm 58. I recommend it
Rating : 4/5 Respond to Jeff
I received my Midnite Star 1300 yesterday, and I can confirm that it's a very good bike: good engine, good finish, good braking (coupled with the rear pedal), and a certain value-added appearance. I don't understand why we're so hung up on a certain American brand, when this generation of Midnite Star, as well as the new VNs, are highly recommendable, and extremely reliable. For those who want a good custom, I recommend this XVS 1300, whether it's Touring or not. Rating : 5/5 Respond to skullcrusher
