The shock absorbers are air adjustable for preload to help compensate for different load sizes. It has a large trunk and side bags. The seats are either traditional flat panel, or pillow top depending on the model and year.

The drive package on the Royal Star Venture includes a liquid-cooled 1,298 cc (79.2 cu in) (referred to as 1,300 cc) V4 engine. It has four valves per cylinder, overhead camshafts, and shim over bucket valves. The five speed overdrive transmission is part of the engine case and both the engine and transmission share oil. The drive shaft and final drive assembly are built into the left side of the double sided swingarm. 

Swing arm motion is damped by a monoshock mounted in the centre of the frame. The clutch is of the wet plate design and is hydraulically activated by the left hand lever.
 
The front brakes are two-piston design, while the single rear calliper houses four pistons. Both front brakes are activated by the right hand lever. The rear brake is activated by the foot pedal on the right.
