2010 Yamaha Raider — Power Meets Presence
When bold styling and raw muscle come together, the result is a motorcycle that commands attention. The 2010 Yamaha Raider stands as one of the most aggressive cruisers of its era, blending unmistakable presence with serious performance and refined engineering. This is a bike built for riders who want to be seen and felt on the road.
With its long, low stance and sculpted lines, the Raider delivers classic cruiser attitude paired with modern Yamaha reliability. Whether cruising down the highway or rolling through town, it offers a confident, powerful ride every time the throttle is twisted.
A Classic Cruiser With Modern Attitude
The Yamaha Raider was designed to break away from traditional cruiser norms. Its stretched chassis, raked-out front end, and wide rear tire give it a muscular profile that looks just as impressive parked as it does in motion. Beneath that bold styling sits one of the largest production V-Twin engines Yamaha has ever built.
Comfortable ergonomics and smooth fuel injection make the Raider equally capable of long-distance cruising and relaxed everyday riding.
