When the Royal Star arrived, Yamaha wrote one manual for the whole XVZ1300 family: LIT-11616-VZ-01. The 1996 Royal Star is model code XVZ1300AH.
Coverage spans 1996 to 2001 and takes in the Royal Star Boulevard, the Royal Star Tour Classic and the Royal Star Tour Deluxe. These machines differ mainly in equipment rather than engineering, so the procedures are common and the tables carry the variations. For an owner that is an advantage, because a fairing or a bag arrangement rarely changes what a torque figure should be.
The technical material is Yamaha's own: disassembly and reassembly in the order the factory specified, inspection criteria and service limits, tightening torques, the periodic maintenance schedule, complete wiring diagrams and troubleshooting organised around symptoms.
Check XVZ1300AH against the code on your frame before you use a specification from these pages as the basis for an order.
