[RaiderRider]

I ride a 2010 Yamaha Raider S.

It's been a long winter and I'm getting a serious itch to get back out there but I'm having shoulder surgery on 3/10/23 and that's going to take a serious gouge out of my riding time this year.

I was just screwing around looking at bikes on the world wide web thingy and came across a Warrior, which I've always loved the styling of, then landed on this forum. So howdy.

Welcome to our madness. Nice bike. Is the surgery due to injury or is it just worn out from having fun?!

Welcome from Germany, ride safe and goo luck with the surgery.
Train arms and shoulders properly thereafter and you will get back on the bike soon.
Be patient !

Should I ever consider to sell my 650 and the Warrior, the Raider would be next, I think.
Well ...... No 😁

Pretty. What size rear tire do you have on the back?

Very sweet ride as I own a Raider as well as a Warrior.
You can slap a 240 on the rear with no modification

The way the Warrior should have come from the factory.

Nice bike, sorry about your shoulder! I dislocated mine, and am on the mend too. No surgery, yet. I have always liked raiders, (the bike not the NFL team) What is the surgery for? I work in an OR when I am not damaged. They will probably do a nerve block on your neck B4 surgery.

Get better quick!
