YAMAHA Stryker (2017-Present) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha Stryker was a cruiser motorcycle manufactured since 2011 as a mid-class chopper-style machine designed to be ridden and admired. The bike featured great attention to detail complemented by modern-era technology.

The bike was seen as a reinterpretation of the iconic chopper with a modern-era symbolic character, which still retained the heritage of old-school choppers and radical road aggressiveness.

In 2017, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha Stryker, a cruiser motorcycle similar to the Yamaha Raider. The 2017 motorcycle packed the exact technical, visual, and performance specifications as previous models without any significant modifications, except for color changes.

In the aesthetic department, the bike had factory-installed standard features, such as a raked-out front fork, a round headlight, a wide, pulled-back handlebar, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a one-piece dual seat, a dual chromed exhaust system, and five-spoke lightweight wheels.

The bike was built around a double cradle steel frame with a 41 mm telescopic fork and a 310 mm brake disc on the front, and an adjustable shock absorber with a 310 mm brake disc on the rear, offering optimum suspension performance, handling, and braking performance.

As for power, the 2017 Yamaha Stryker packed a 1,304cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine fed by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, delivering 82 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque with a peak force at 4,000 rpm.
