Raider from Star Motorcycles Wins
Yamaha Press Release - Mar 10, 2008

 

 The Annual V-Twin Expo is an industry-only event that draws attendees from across the United States and overseas. The award is presented by V-Twin Motorcycles magazine, a leading US publication focusing on the cruiser market. “We couldn't be more excited about receiving this award from V-Twin Motorcycles magazine,” explains Derek Brooks, Product Planning Manager for Star Motorcycles. “Winning it for our all-new Raider means a great deal to us. Of course, we feel the Raider is a home run with its aluminum frame, 113 cubic-inch (1854cc) engine, and radical styling. However, it's always nice to have such a leading publication feel the same way.”

 

Achieving such an important award is a great validation for Star Motorcycles, because it shows how powerful and effective it is to lead the cruiser field with new designs and engineering – rather than simply copying what others have done. “It's easy to make a bike look good, but the Raider handles and rides as good as it looks,” Brooks continues. “This truly reinforces Star’s vision to be a leader in the cruiser market and not follow convention.”
