Raider

[az1103]

Went to the Long Beach Bike show yesterday. Saw the new Raider:( Sat on it.... The most uncomfortable bike I have sat on in recent memory!!!!

What were they thinking? In a line up that includes such great bikes as the Stratoliner and the RSV this thing is sad:confused24:

Dont know why but it reminds me of the Honda NightHawk.

Now there was an uncomfortable bike.

I sat on one Saturday, and it did nothing for me but I fell it was not intended for middle aged motorcyclists like myself.

Its more of a Pub Crawler, HAAAAAAA

No need for anything like that.

Needs a set of pull backs, adjustable forward controls and a good backrest with a padded sissy bar to lean against.... Then a set of upward slanted "FISH TAILS" like Captain America and I would really like it...

Oh well,, not bad for a first try at a custom bike I guess...

I would like to know who started this idea of calling ergonomics that separate the riders shoulder blades while they ride cool in the first place?? The whole cruiser fade is stupid from that perspective.. I thought that back when I bought my Harley FX LowRider back in 78.. Gorgeous bike that came with straight drag bars that you couldnt ride more then an hour without stopping and putting your blades back in your shoulders.. First thing I did was put a good set of pull backs on er...
