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.

AMA Pro Racing Announces Basic Twins Flat Track Class for 2014 Season

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

AMA Pro Racing announced a new class for Flat Track racing designed to provide a new stepping stone for up-and-coming Pro-licensed racers, replacing the Pro Singles class in 2014. The new class, to be called Basic Twins, is more or less a revival of the Basic Expert Twins division that ran during the 2007 and 2008 seasons, but dropped when the Pro Singles class was introduced for 2009. The new class will give young racers a chance to showcase their skills on Twins, easing their transition to eventually enter the Grand National Expert Twins class.
