Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2007, 2008
It was simply inconceivable that a premium cruiser such as the Stratoliner was left without a Midnight version, so here's the 2008 MY machine, all dressed in a sober black livery, with both glossy and matte accents beautifully contrasting with the rich chromed out parts. As if a big,and finished to perfection down to minute details bike was not enough, Yamaha ups the ante with the 2008 MY of the Stratoliner Midnight is one of the cruiser elite.
Leather clad hard cases, a generous windscreen, black covers, and tall passenger backrest are great complements for the beefy 1854cc v-twin. However, the cast wheels could have also been blackened out for an even more impressive stance.
