Yamaha Raider description
2013 Yamaha Raider, Star Motorcycles Stryker With its raked-out front end and fists in the wind riding position, the Stryker is pure attitude. 2013 Star Motorcycles Stryker
With its raked-out front end and fists in the wind riding position, the Stryker is pure attitude. And the rest of the chopper-inspired Raider is pure Star quality, designed and engineered by the world s best bike builders. Features
The Raider was inspired by the custom chopper movement, but since it s a Star, it had to also handle, stop and go.
A 6-degree yoke angle the first ever on a street-legal Star Motorcycle makes it possible to achieve that custom look as well as neutral handling and straight-line cruisability: 33-degree rake plus 6 degrees yoke angle gives total rake of 39 degrees and 102mm of trail.
Custom 5-spoke wheels carry a 120/70-21-inch bias tire up front, and a wide, 210/40-18 radial out back the tallest and widest ever on a Star.
Estimated 42 mpg* means this cruiser can go the distance between fill-ups.
Clutch has light, easy-pull operation 20% less effort at the lever than before.
Left-thumb operated high-beam switch, and right-thumb activated accessory driving light switch for great visibility.
Jewel-like fit and finish, and Star quality paint, chrome and attention to detail are evident all over the Raider.
Cool, tank-mounted instrumentation complements the custom look, and contains analog speedometer and fuel gauge, along with twin digital tripmeters, odometer and self-diagnostics.
Bright multireflector headlight, LED taillight and amber turn signals behind clear lenses give a custom look.
02 sensor and three-way catalyst reduce emissions.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.
Wed, 06 Jun 2012I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.

Highlights include the hard-fought duel between Hayes and Young at Mid-Ohio, Hayes and Tommy Hayden swapping the lead on the final lap at Laguna Seca and the title-clinching finale at New Jersey Motorsports Park.
