I’ve had a Fury and a m109r. The Fury is an awesome bike I loved it but it is a cruiser and yes it’s not fast however it’s an awesome bike. The M109r is fast and yes it’s faster that the raider stock but it’s plastic and a pain to work on. Lots of panels to take off. The Raider is a perfect bike in my eyes fast enough comfy and good looking. In my opinion for what it’s worth out of the three bikes the Raider comes out on top. However it depends what you want out of your bike. If you simple what to sit back and cruise then the Fury. If you want to Drag Race the M109R is for you. But the Raider is the best of both worlds.
109r is ugly af and uncomfortable. Roadliner,strat, raider is waay better in every direction
I've owed a m109 and the raider...not much difference in performance but the raider is a much better bike
X-Harley man here and I think the Raiders is the best looking factory cruiser from any company, including H.D. Keep that bike.
Nice bike man, I have a raider too. Low and mean makes a lot of awesome raider accessories including a slim seat which might be what you have. And I run an LED headlight from cyclops, very bright and reliable brand in the raider community. If you havent joined the raider group on facebook, you should consider. Lots of cool bikes and people who can answer questions about mods to maintenance and more. Ride on brother
Thanks man! I'm 6'7 and started looking at the raider, warrior, and stratoliner because of your earlier vid.
Hey, I'm glad to hear it! I don't think you'll be disappointed no matter which one you choose. This bike is a lifer for me, there's no point ever getting rid of it lol
The raider is using the engine of the roadliner/stratoliner. It’s the muscle/sporty version ( tuned a little differently) The newer Yamaha venture/eluder uses the same engine but it has been a bit reworked. So it’s just 3 variations . The Yamaha RS Warrior uses the engine from the roadstar. ( the 2nd gen warrior had the 1600 engine bored out, different internals & fuel injection.) the scl has a multi layer paint job & some other cosmetic stuff. These bikes are expensive over seas because they were made for the North American market. Sadly they have all been Discontinued here in the USA .
Also first generation Slc had a wider rear wheel making a 240 look a bit wider.
08' Raider here. I have a few big bikes. I will never sell my Raider. I have a couple of Harleys. My Yamaha Raider is 3X the bike of a Harley !!!!!
I'm 5'5 and I love my Raider runs so smooth and handles great.
I believe that's a Low and Mean seat pan.
That seat is from LOW AND MEAN parts for the raider. They used to sell it but now only sell the shell of the low seat. They also sell fenders, rear tire kits,drop kits, and the only ones to sell a front rake kit if you want to truly make it a chopper. NICE motorcycle almost identical to mine
Fury competes with the Stryker, Raider w any Harley chopper
Have a 2009 Raider and I love it ...
Here in Australia I’ve seen Harley’s from 30 to 50 grand
M109R will be a head to head match up with the raider, I own a raider and I also test road a m109r it's very similar to the raider, but I will pick the raider over any!
08 raider owner
I LOVE the M109R, but I'm with you. I'll never get rid of my Raider.
Big Jake why not...... BOTH haha
Hi. I bought yesterday a Yamaha Raider here in Europe BELGIUM.
Like you said in the movie, here it cost €12.000 for a 2008 14.000miles.
The shipping is expensive and also its more like demand and supply.
In Belgium you cant find them.
I drove a HD sportser 1200 and right now im SUPER crazy about the Raider its a f*kng great bike. In my eyes the best.
A classic sportster here cost around €10.000. I know crazy.
I just bought a 2015 with 0 zero miles on it. The guy owned a shop and he kept 4 bikes that he didn't ride at all. Had no oil in it or gas nor battery. I have yet to ride it hoping my battery and stuff comes in so I can put my first mile on it. I can't believe I found this thing
I'm 6'8 and cannot wait to pick up one of these beautiful bikes.
You won’t regret it
Dude, I made a 5 top I dislike or like w.e a few years back about my yamaha raider and forgot to put a exhaust clip. The entire comment section was trying to stab me over it. Dudes love to hear them pipes roar
I have a 2010 Yamaha Raider that I bought new. It is without a doubt the most comfortable bike I have ever ridden. The M109 may be faster oh, but it is nowhere near as comfortable.
My only question about the Raider is why in the hell people want to get rid of the best designed pipes in the motorcycle industry? And they are stock’s. OEM. Personally, I find the Vance and Hines horrible complaire to those stock pipes. And yes,by the way, I own a 2008 deep red metallic Raider. One of the best if not the best color of all the 10 years. Too bad they stopped doing it. Mileage that a got for the three years is about 33-39 mpg or more or less 6.5 liter/100km
You still got the bike? If so, we can use another video!
I'm thinking about buying one next week. One question I have is how comfortable is it on long rides?
I own one very comfortable on long rides with the stock seat.
100 miles max 4 me ..🐎💨
Where did you get the switch back turn signal at I can find any for my Yamaha raider
Was looking at a Suzuki M90 or this Raider. How is the handling on these Raiders with that back tire and raked out front end? I like the look of the Raider a bit more but what has been one of my main concerns in the liquid cooled vs air cooled. I live in the mojave desert and temps between 110-120 is normal during summer time and I was thinking the air cooled might be a problem there, especially when driving in traffic. Though, I do live in a small town so traffic isn't too bad... but man, that bike has got to get really hot riding out here. Granted, this is probably one of the few places where the summer isn't the real riding season and 110+ is pretty miserable to ride just a bicycle in. Spring/fall is more where it's at. We sort of have all types of riding here. We have city riding, long stretches of highway and we are surrounded by mountains that also have some twisties. Been curious which between the two would be better overall for that general riding.
Nice video man. How did you do away with the rear turn signals and the plastic license plate thing??
Myrandomvideo' s I have a 2010 Raider. It all unbolts very simple underneath as a whole unit. You can pick up a Tail light integrated turn signal for around $50 on ebay. They are Very bright even on a sunny day. Simple to install just plug and go. Side note: I have a side mounted license plate
"maybe harleys are 30 grand overseas" yes, they are😂.
A Raider in Germany is around 11k. Comparable harleys are 5-10k more.
Cyclops adventures sports has a nice led bulb I had it on mine for over a year. Its plug and play. The seat might be from low and mean. M109R handles like shit but is faster and not a fan of plastic fenders.
Mine is 100 miles per tank an thats pushing it
That sounds about right!
Bike sounds awesome. Im 5' 8 do you think it's too high for me?
UK have very bad prices
I've a 2012 with a 240 rear. What's the biggest that can be put on without having to do any modifications?
Yours will crush the majority of harleys though...thats all that matters right?
How much do you have to pay to get the equivalent of 1900ccs from harley again...about 22 grand.
My yamaha raider blew third gear at 20k miles.. 3500 bucks to fix on a bike worth 5500.....JUNK
Had a 78 Yamaha 750 special, bought it new, 2 nd gear went out, just rode it like that for years. Same thing happened on my 92 Vmax, still have it . Riding with no 2nd gear, no big deal.
I dunno, man. I'm 5'12" and I don't know if I would be tall enough for this beast.
I’m 6’1 and I have the 5” extended foot controls and I have a slight bend still. I think you’d be ok.
I'm 5'9 on a good day and I ride quite comfortably on my 09 Raider so you'll be just fine.
5’12” you mean 6’ ?!
Great video.
Thanks buddy!
Did you check valve clearance checked?
I did
Hi Big Jake, thanks for the video brother. I am 5'6 short a really wants the Raider. Will I be able to ride the Raider comfortably. Riding a Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird currently as reference.
mornemib brink I am only 5’7 ish and I’ve had my raider for close to 6 years. I feel very stable and can easily maneuver it. I’ve had the stock seat and reached everything just fine. I switched to a ZR1 brand seat strictly for looks and I feel like it sits you up a little straighter and a little closer to the front of the bike as compared to the stock seat which puts you a little deeper into the bike. Either way you should be Fine
I'm 5'6" as well and own a '15 raider, if you are a confident rider you'll have no problems whatsoever.
Hi there I got a 2009 Yamaha Raider.. what is the size for your front turn signals pls
I believe it's an XP80 bulb, but you might have to confirm that
Great video, man. I just bought an 09 Raider and have been looking everywhere for the V&H 2 into 1 and can’t find it anywhere. I guess my question to you or to anyone on here is since Yamaha uses the same engine for the Stratoliner and Roadliner like are the exhausts interchangeable? Also if I do get my hands on some is it necessary to have the tuner?
Raul Esquivel the exhausts are NOT interchangeable. The frames are designed differently on each bike so the exhaust is meant for that specific model only.
I recommend getting Ivan’s ecu flash, it’s the best thing you can do on these bikes (Yamaha) no need for a tuner!
You can find that exhaust on amazon or ebay.
Damn I hate misinformed videos. Dude you’re riding Yamahas flagship. The thing kills Harley 114 all day. M109r is uncomfortable and looks like a pickle. Good luck finding parts for Suzuki. Aftermarket for Yamaha flagships is great.
Could be the stock seat that they just shaved down..
Hey boo! It's possible, but I've still got the stock seat, and it's a different design. This one is great, but the plastic on the stock seat is much nicer and thicker.
Are you still running the stock tire size? I've read these eat tires.
I get about seven thousand miles out of my back tire. And more than double that out of my front tire.
I got 7000 out of my stock rear then i upgraded to the avon cobra 240. I changed my front tire at 11,000 miles with the matching avon cobra. I dont baby mine either. Ive read you get much better mileage off the 240 avon rear
I was curious. Just bought an 09 Raider.
@@justinmobley257 Awesome! Congrats on joining the raider family! I love my bike, its a blast to ride. Always have people asking me what is that lol they do a double take when i tell them its a yamaha raider, instant shock!
Went to a 215/45/18 CT .. smooth .. good for 28kmiles ?
I'll let ya Know ... 🏆
