Keb's, My old buddy Andy went and jumped off the deep end. He went and got the new Yamaha Raider. I rode with him on Sunday and man that thing is fast. He jumped out on the VTX quick, spinning the whole time. I did run him down but it took me a good while and I think that he let off. Anyway have fun.

I looked for the spec's on HP and torque, but could not find any.
Do you know what it's pushing?


Just found it 123.8 ft lbs of torque wow has me by 11.5 ft lbs
sure sounds powerfull

If I make it, I'll probably spectate.  Those hard bags are a PITA to take off and put back on.  Plus, everyone is bringing the high-powered stuff!  ;D
