Yamaha Raider description

Design

Yamaha tapped the custom world for styling cues on its 2008 Star Raider including a chopped-out rake, raised handlebars, and the widest tire yet in its lineup. The chrome 2-1-2 down-swept exhausts have an EXUP valve that aims to boost torque in the 2500-3500 rpm range and includes environmentally-friendly twin catalyzers and an oxygen sensor.

Options Included

It includes many custom extras such as Power Commander fuel management system, tachometer, low windscreen, chrome and detachable passenger seat backrest.

Rider Experience

The Yamaha Raider is the closest handling experience I could find to a sport bike in the cruiser category.  With rider and passenger, it has power to spare.  Very comfortable for trips.  Makes a strong statement riding around town.  Rock solid Yamaha mechanical reliability.  Classic chopper styling.

Andrea Dovizioso Signs with Tech 3 Yamaha for 2012

Tue, 11 Oct 2011

The Tech 3 MotoGP team has reached a one-year agreement with Andrea Dovizioso, signing the Repsol Honda factory rider to take Colin Edwards’ place on the Yamaha satellite team in the 2012 season. Dovizioso will join the Tech 3 Yamaha team after three years with the Repsol Honda team. Despite currently holding onto the third overall spot on the 2011 championship points standings with five podium appearances and 13 top-five finishes in 15 races, Dovizioso found himself the odd man out with Honda which will stick with a two-man factory team of Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa with Marco Simoncelli riding a factory-supported Honda RC212V with the Gresini team.
