The Yamaha Road Star Warrior Forum

Shag:

  I love the seat conversion thing on that bike.  The stock seat setup on the Rocker looks absolutely retarded to me.  

+1  I do not like that stock seat at all!

DarkStar:

The Harley looks better in comparison to either Raider posted in this topic.....

I stand corrected! Man that is one sweet ride!

 I'd throw a leg over either one if given the opprotunity. They both seem to be a decent platform for customization. However, I can't stand that bland-azz grey engine coating on the first harley pic...did they run out of black and chrome??? I suppose it would be ok if you were going for a bland/flat grey paint scheme, but who does that?

NO, its a very simple task......pick the one you like........cant you do that?.... just pick the one you like.......don't need any what ifs, how comes.....I'm not trying to do anything............ should maybe start a new post about people not being able to do a simple thing without interjecting a bunch of other BS....and this is the beginning of the typical blown out arguments on here.   i didn't say one was better than the other, or one was faster/slower,   cost more costs less........just pick the one you like.

I did. I picked the Harley, maybe you missed that.  If you can not handle people giving their opinions of what they like and why they like it then maybe you should avoid public forums.

Okay, then replace modified Harley pic with stock Harley pick and ask again.  We could do the same thing with the harley pic you posted against a one-off custom and the vast majority of people are going to go with the one-off.  Whats the point in comparing two bikes on looks when one is obvioulsy highly customized compared to the other?

ok, thats your last post......you call that "picking the harley"    what are you high? 

I prefer the five spokes, the design and blacked out treatement of the engine, and the dual front discs of the Raider. I prefer the tank and the way it fits onto the bike on the Harley.  You can keep the silly fenders of both those bikes (FAR prefer the Warrior style).  Similarly, neither of the bikes pipes do a thing for me visually, but I will say that the Raider's pipes do have a really pleasing sound.

Must say there are a lot better looking Harley's you could have compared it with though.

  well i think your warrior is sweet,

Ditto.  That Warrior is about as nice a custom job as I've ever seen.  I could never own such a bike for fear of blemishing it, but as art it gets my vote.

WELL i didn't really do much of a search for Harley's or raiders, i just saw those two and was surprised at the very similar lines of both, not how much one was customized or not. one is a look alike  and one is an original.  just was curious on peoples visual preference.

I like the raider better. I hate the bobber fender on the harley, as well as the swing arm and front fork. I do think that the raider has too much space between the tank and the tripple tree. Overall I personally prefer the look of the raider.

Nice try, but those Harley's are a dime a dozen. Raiders are more unique and a little quicker, from what I've heard. BTW, this particular Harley would have a better showing against the bone stock Raider in your first post and not the decked out custom Raider above it. Did I mention that the Raider is faster than the Harley?

and u moan about me singling u out in posts........hmm its a wonder why? that happens to be a SE softail custom with a 110 and would make quick work of a Raider in all categories. but again its just about what u like, even if you're a douche about it
