OK, look, we here at RaiderPerformace.com have owned several different makes and models of bikes, and honestly, we love each and every one of them.  We do not condone bike bashing in any way.  We have enough trouble getting respect from those who don't ride.

That being said, it's not "bashing" if it's an objective statement of facts, right?

Well, here is some independent research that demonstrates how the Raider stacks up against the competition (all bikes stock).

Performance is effected by so many variables.  HP and Torque alone don't tell the whole story.  The 1/4 mile is where the truth is distilled.
