As a touring bike, the 2022 Yamaha Star Venture makes a lot of sense. The 1854cc engine produces 90 hp and 170.8 Nm, which suits the bike's character well. With a 696 mm seat and a 437 kg weight, it is best suited to long, comfortable days in the saddle, although its size makes it less suited to tight city streets. A good option if it matches the way you ride.
