Technical Overview
2018 Yamaha Star Eluder Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Yamaha for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2018 Yamaha Star Eluder utilizes a 1851.9 cc (113 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 89.9 HP (65.6 kW) at 4,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 171 Nm (126.1 lb-ft) at 2,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 48.5 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (2,500 rpm) and peak power (4,250 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Star Eluder measures 396.9 kg (875 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.23 HP/kg (4.41 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 701 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,709 mm (67.3 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
