RAIDING THE STREETS
by Matthew Allen Road Trip
This is my 08’ Yamaha Raider S Tommy blue in
color. The engine is a 1900 V-twin. Just had it
on the dyno and it’s producing 91HP at about
109TQ. I have just added the Vance & Hines
2-1 Big Radius exhaust, with a K&N filter and
a Power Commander III. I am going to get it
back on the dyno again soon to check the new
numbers I will be putting down with the Metzler
210. I put on the star windshield, Kuryakyn ISO
grips, and Kuryakyn mirrors. Everything else is
almost stock, with just a couple mods to clean
things up to my taste.
