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.
Yamaha Raider (XV1900A) została wprowadzona w 2008 roku jako specjalnie skonstruowany na zamówienie krążownik, opracowany na tej samej platformie V-twin o pojemności 1854 cm3, co Stratoliner i Roadliner. Został zaprojektowany, aby bezpośrednio konkurować z niestandardowym segmentem Harley-Davidson, charakteryzujący się dramatycznie niskim profilem, tylnym końcem w stylu hardtail i minimalistyczną estetyką bobber, dzięki czemu wyróżniał się w ofercie Yamahy. Raider pozostał w dużej mierze niezmieniony podczas cyklu produkcyjnego, zdobywając silnych zwolenników dzięki agresywnej stylistyce i silnemu dostarczaniu momentu obrotowego o niskim poziomie.

Co kupujący powinni wiedzieć
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.
Pokolenia i specyfikacje według roku
Początkowy cykl produkcyjny; 113ci V-twin, napęd pasowy, rama w stylu twardego ogona, brak poważnych zmian mechanicznych podczas całego cyklu.
"Brutalny, niskoobrotowy rower mięśniowy, który faktycznie dostarcza."
Ten V-twin o pojemności 1854 cm3 uderza jak pociąg towarowy z prędkością 2500 obr./min — moment obrotowy tak gruby, że czujesz go w klatce piersiowej, zanim mózg zarejestruje wejście przepustnicy. Zrobiłem na swoim 400 kilometrów dni, a wysokość siedzenia 695 mm jest naprawdę wygodna dla krótszych jeźdźców, chociaż rama w stylu hardtail przenosi każde połączenie dylatacyjne prosto do kręgosłupa po trzeciej godzinie. Przy wadze 347 kg jest garstka na parkingach, a wolnoobrotowe zakręty przyłapają Cię na baczności raz - i tylko raz. Ale przekrocz 60 km/h, a waga zniknie, napęd pasowy jest gładki i ściąga się czysto do wskazanych 175, zanim sprawy staną się aerodynamicznie uczciwe.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"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.
