Only 1,500 of these were produced and a serial numbered placard was placed on the rear of the trunk. That 2000 year model color was Pearl White/Ivory two-tone with tan coloured seats. In 2000 Yamaha produced the Millennium Edition Royal Star Venture. This was the last year for the Midnight version of the S model. The seats on the Midnight model were changed to the unstudded pillow top design for the last half of 2006. The older flat panel seats were used on the Midnight models with the addition of chrome studs along the sides. The older seats were more firm than the newer "pillow top" seats. The 19 year models have different seat styles to the 2001 to current year models. This is most noted in the "Midnight" version of the S model that featured Raven (black with silver metallic) paint. Some years the S model has retained the same color, though always different from the standard model. Each year the standard model color has changed. The two models also have different paint colors. The standard model has brushed front forks while the S model has chromed front forks. There are two basic models: standard and S. It departs from the earlier sport touring styling in favor of a classically styled touring look. Though Yamaha revived the Venture name that it used on the 1983 to 1993 Venture Royale models, the Royal Star Venture shares little with its predecessor except for the time-proven, liquid-cooled V4 engine and shaft drive. The re-vamped, new look, Second Generation model was introduced in 1999 and was manufactured, largely unchanged, through the 2013 year model.

The Royale model is the Venture with additional accessories and weight. The Vmax sold in the US was equipped with a lower geared drive unit as well which gave it better acceleration but made it a feel a little "busy" on the freeway.

The Vmax was equipped with the V-boost system that the Ventures never received reported to add a full 20 horsepower to the Vmax offering. The first generation V-Max engine was a modified version of the one used in the earlier 1198 cc version of the Venture Royale. In 2005 it introduced the Royal Star Tour Deluxe, which is the Royal Star Venture without the fairing, radios or trunk. In 1999 Yamaha again brought out a large full touring motorcycle known as the Royal Star Venture, again using a variation of the Venture power package. Yamaha discontinued the design until 1996 when it resurrected the Venture engine and produced a cruiser-style motorcycle called the Royal Star that was produced until 2001.
