Yamaha Raider 1900
The Yamaha Raider 1900 has a top speed of 185 km/h (estimated; note: not a performance-focused model), produces 100 hp and weighs 317 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
यामाहा रेडर (XV1900A) को 2008 में एक उद्देश्य से निर्मित कस्टम क्रूजर के रूप में पेश किया गया था, जिसे स्ट्रैटोलिनर और रोडलाइनर के समान 1854cc वी-ट्विन प्लेटफॉर्म पर विकसित किया गया था। इसे हार्ले-डेविडसन के कस्टम सेगमेंट के साथ सीधे प्रतिस्पर्धा करने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया था, जिसमें नाटकीय रूप से लो-स्लंग प्रोफाइल, हार्डटेल-स्टाइल रियर एंड और मिनिमलिस्ट बॉबर एस्थेटिक्स शामिल हैं, जिसने इसे यामाहा के लाइनअप में सबसे अलग बना दिया। रेडर अपने प्रोडक्शन रन के दौरान काफी हद तक अपरिवर्तित रहा, जिसने अपनी आक्रामक स्टाइल और मजबूत लो-एंड टॉर्क डिलीवरी के लिए एक मजबूत फॉलोइंग अर्जित की।

Proven 1900cc Engine
The Raider's 113ci V-twin is shared with the Star Stratoliner and Roadliner, giving it a well-documented reliability record with relatively few major mechanical complaints across its production run (2008–2016).
Watch for Hard Parts
Since Yamaha discontinued the Raider in 2016, aftermarket and OEM parts availability is tightening — inspect the cam chain tensioners and fuel pump on high-mileage examples, as these are the most commonly reported wear items.
Strong Resale Hold
The Raider's aggressive bobber-style design gives it a cult following, helping it retain value better than many cruisers in its class — clean, low-mileage examples consistently command premium prices on the used market.
जनरेशन और स्पेक्स साल के हिसाब से
प्रारंभिक उत्पादन रन; 113ci वी-ट्विन, बेल्ट ड्राइव, हार्डटेल-स्टाइल फ्रेम, पूरे रन में कोई बड़ा यांत्रिक संशोधन नहीं।
"ब्रिटिश, लो-स्लंग मसल बाइक जो वास्तव में डिलीवर करती है।"
वह 1854cc वी-ट्विन 2,500 आरपीएम पर एक मालगाड़ी की तरह टकराता है — टॉर्क इतना मोटा होता है कि आपका दिमाग थ्रॉटल इनपुट को रजिस्टर करने से पहले ही इसे अपने सीने में महसूस करता है। मैंने 400 किलोमीटर की दूरी तय की है और 695 मिमी सीट की ऊंचाई छोटे सवारों के लिए वास्तव में आरामदायक है, हालांकि हार्डटेल-स्टाइल फ्रेम तीन घंटे के बाद हर विस्तार जोड़ को सीधे आपकी रीढ़ की हड्डी में पहुंचाता है। 347 किग्रा भार उठाने पर पार्किंग स्थल पर एक मुट्ठी भर बैठते हैं और धीमी गति के यू-टर्न आपको एक बार — और केवल एक बार चौकन्ने कर देंगे। लेकिन इसे 60 किमी/घंटा से ऊपर ले जाएं और यह वज़न गायब हो जाता है, बेल्ट ड्राइव कानाफूसी में आसान है, और इससे पहले कि चीजें वायुगतिकीय रूप से ईमानदार हो जाएं, यह स्पष्ट रूप से 175 तक खींचती है।

प्रयुक्त क्रेता समीक्षा
"A serious muscle cruiser that rewards patient, experienced buyers willing to inspect carefully."
$6,500-$11,000 usedThe Raider 1900 is one of those bikes that demands respect the moment you swing a leg over it. That 113-cubic-inch Star motor is genuinely massive, and the low-slung chassis puts you right in the cut. Power delivery is smooth but authoritative — not wild, but you always know there's torque on tap. It's Yamaha's answer to the V-Rod, and honestly it holds up well used. Buy years 2008-2015 and inspect the belt drive carefully — they're known to show wear if previous owners skipped maintenance. Check the front fork seals too, because they leak on high-mileage examples. Parts availability is decent but not exceptional, so budget accordingly. Avoid anything with aftermarket exhaust unless you're ready to retune the fuel injection yourself.
