The Silverado is the touring-equipped Road Star: a long, low retro cruiser with a 1670 cc air-cooled pushrod V-twin tuned for low-rev torque, belt drive and five speeds with overdrive. This 2006 version carries studded leather saddlebags, a backrest, a windscreen and floorboards. The Midnight edition adds black paint, hard saddlebags, passing lamps and extra chrome.
