Have a 2007, best bike ever. Great torque, great lean angle, great ride.

I have a 2006 s model. It is aluminum swing arm and frame. That was a big weight saver.

I have the 2014 Road liner and the 2007 Warrior best bikes I've ever had they are some awesome bikes and I still have them right today and haven't had a problem out of neither one of them and that lady in that car😤 in a very good video on this bike

Great video, very thorough examination by someone who so obviously knows what they're talking about...can't get past that woman jumping out in front of you like that, its so terrifying to know that you can be doing everything right and still be injured/killed by someone just being careless. Had a woman pull out in front of me last year, barely managed to swerve and avoid her...went back to view the gopro footage and she had just the most far off look on her face, didn't even seem like she was mentally present. Scary stuff.

They’re much smoother because they have a Counterbalance in the 1900 vs the 1700 roadstar that shakes and vibrates . Great review !!👍👏

I have the best of two worlds. I have had a 2004 Warrior for years, and recently bought myself a 2013 Victory CCT! I adore both and now have a full-time hobby of riding, and searching for parts and accessories...😏

GREAT VIDEO....I have a 06 that looks exactly like that, well before all the modifications and honestly i dont want to ride nothing but a Yamaha

Bought one in the uk in 06 traded a 04 R1, when I said I'd have it. I'd never seen the salesman move so fast, I've still got it and love it, it out harleys harley a great ride at 66 it's heavy but I'm not a big guy anyway so have to consider parking, but its low and easy to paddle a future classic.

Just picked up a 2006 and I love it. Had to get used to the snappy throttle, but otherwise just bonded with it instantly. The only flaw on mine is that the tachometer moisture issue burned the neutral light out. Having grown up on dirt bikes with zero lights and meters, this isn't a concern, but I carry a gallon size Ziploc freezer bag with 4 small, strong magnets inside so I can put a magnet in each corner of the bag and stick it to the gas tank, covering the tachometer whenever the bike's going to be out in the rain. Seems to work like a charm, so far.

I love my ‘06 Stratolined Roadliner bought 7 years old with 3K miles. Reckless fairing just installed. I am never going electric.

i have a 2007 stratoliner s with 10,000 miles on it ,very beautiful bike my go to when i want to ride .

The future will never be electric for motorcycles dude.

Thank you for this insightful video. You broke alot of the technical facts down in a way that i could follow. I'm a shadetree bike mechanic so while i understand what alot of the things do i don't know the terms or specifics without looking up the individual thing in my hand. I've been on the fence between the vulcan 2000 from kawasaki, the vtx1800 from honda and the roadliner. If you can't tell I'm looking for a roadking/heritage type bike without the price and issues that come with those two bikes. I think you sold me on the roadliner. Three vtx was eliminated because it's shaft drive. I adore chain drive and can tolerate and ignore the a belt drive. For me it's the oil cooling system and the (I'm not going to butcher that Japanese brand name) EFI throttle body system you were talking about. The handling and power differences between the vulcan and the roadliner to me were negligible. The five mph differences in top speed and the half inch in lean angle were all fine and i don't really care about trim packages since i strip everything off for storage right off the bat and ride bare bones. The efficiency of the 1900 and cooling factors will be the biggest benefit to me for my type of trips. Midwest to the south and the west coast. This will soak up that abuse with less wear and my turn key reliability in the vastly different climates will be better than the vulcan. Starting my bike every morning for work is easy to ask for but starting at a camp sight in a desert basin one day and then up top a forested mountain two days later with no issues is a whole other ask. It sounds like for what it's worth the roadliner will be a better companion than the vulcan. Thanks man, I've got a few leads and I'm cleanings up some maintenance and undoing some mods for my trade in this spring. I should be getting on one in the next 3 months. It's going to be so much better on the interstates than my 500 pound 50 horsepower carbed cruiser I've been running all around. Adjusting carbs when your trying to keep on a time schedule has been getting frustrating even though I've gotten fast at it.

Got exactly same model, just got rid of the windshield and put Batwing fairing. And it's not a deluxe, its a Stratoliner S. Delux were with the oem batwing fairing. Also got 2019 fjr1300, love riding both. Take care!

No ABS. Was ABS an option? Does it have a fuel gauge? What’s the real world range? Where is the choke? How hot does it get in the worst stop-and-go traffic, 180 degrees, 200, 220? Quite a few important and practical bits of information missing here. But it DOES have a Hemi! Some of the technical data provided was useful. So thanks. It looks nice, but I’m not convinced this is truly luxurious by the details. That skid on a wet road would have resulted in a fall.

Amazing bikes, I bought my 2008 in 2021 and have put over 25k miles on it (pushing 50k overall)... Roadliner/Stratoliner -- 2006-2014 ... Raiders were made from 2006-2017. Lots of variations out there, I'm preferential to the 'Deluxe' models with batwing fairing and maint-matched hard saddle bags (officially a factory model from 2010-2014... many, including the previous owner of my bike, used factory accessories to make their standard 'Liners in to Deluxe models. Also of course, many aftermarket batwings and bags out there. Can be hard to tell what's factory and what's not if you don't know what you're looking at (as it is with many used bikes of course). Great community of 'Liner owns all over the internet as well.

Awesome bikes, I had a Roadliner and a Raider

J'en ai un depuis 2 ans, meilleures moto a vie en 27 saison 💯

I have an 08 Roadliner S with about 110k miles on her. My advice for riding on in Socal is to put a car tire on the back.

Lemon Pledge is your friend! Got my '06 Stratoliner S, 47,000 miles on it now...

I once owned a 2007 Yammie 1100cc V-Star custom, I traded it in for a 2015 Harley Heritage Softail Classic 1700cc, but that was just a natural progression for Me as I've always been a Harley fan, I've also owned a Yammie Midnight Special 1000cc in the past which was the forerunner to the Virago & a Harley Softail Standard as well as a Roadking, I like all Bikes really not just the one brand, I like Cruisers the best but to each his own I guess, but I have to be honest, I think that My old V-Star custom was the most easiest Bike to handle & the most comfortable Bike to ride out of all of the Bikes I've ever owned, it only weighed about 287kgs dry weight, that's about 631•4lbs where as My Heritage Softail weighs 336kgs dry weight, that's 739•2lbs the trouble is, at almost 74 years of age now & at the moment, I myself, only weigh 50kgs wringing wet, that's about 110lbs, so I often worry about will I be able to pick it up if I'm ever on My own sometime & I happen to drop it, not all Bikes come with crashbars so they will go all the way to the ground when dropped, the one thing that nobody thinks about when We buy a Bike is that just about all Bikes are going to weigh a lot more than We do ourselves, maybe part of the buying process should be to have a Bike, either of the same or greater weight than the one You're going to buy, laid down & see if you can pick it up by yourself first, what do You think?

How is the wind buffeting on this at high speed? I have a V-Star 1300 and it is horrible coming up from the ground. It really wears you out at high speeds.

I currently have a 2008 Vulcan nomad 1600. I see a startoliner available in my area. 2013 model. Is it worth the upgrade or are these bikes very similar? My bike has 16K miles.

These bikes benefit hugely from an Ivan's ECU flash. The typical aftermarket fuel processor doesn't hold a candle to what a flash does.

Ok I did not see your review of the Honda VTX1800. I am torn between these two bikes and really would like your input. Which do you prefer and why?

Nick, did you say 2005 Yamaha Stratoliner? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought 2006 was the first model year of the Yamaha Stratoliner???

My first bike. Gonna ride it until the wheels fall off.

okay, got my roadliner last week, very little riding(too cold still here in quebec) got condensation in the speedometer, normal? just me? fixable? otherwise, quite the head turner😎

Bought my new old stock 2007 in 2009. Got it for under $10k. Good to have a bit of money in a recession. Yes, I get snubbed, even harassed, by the H-D crowd, but I've always been a loner. I just laugh and buy them a round, because they are all $20k short.

2005 you say ??? They were introduced in 2006. I have a 2006 Roadliner and the original owner had to wait 3 months to get it because he pre-ordered it. I was with him when he picked it up.

Riding stratoliner feels like your ride a train or bull. Amazing feelings.

Yamaha was putting on the teardrop on the roadster first in 2004. I have one 😅

Donc; combien pour un modèle de 2008 environ?

Yes, yes it is.

Tank lines are art decco 20s

largest is vulcan 2000 for cruiser choppers

I had a 2006, it will dust any stock HD

If it's a 12 second 1/4 mile ..it's power cruiser

hemispherical? you tellin' me right there that thing got a HEMI in it??🤣🤣🤣

It is more of a Road King than a Road King. The bike is great until 3rd gear decides to eat itself.

1800 vtx is not 550 lbs. Really

now you need a triumph rocket

Let’s be honest the stock exhaust on these bikes are trash

the future is NOT electric!!

The future is only for electric shorts. There will always be room for a vtwin unless the socialist environmentalists win out. My Strat is a 2007 with Freedom performance onboard. I'm 66 and still riding. Aint giving it up. The riding or the bike.

The future is not electric. Electric is an epic failure

That bike can't be a 2005. These bikes didn't come out till 2006

Waste a tire🤡

Too much chatter, get to the main points

Air cooled crap. 50k and it's done. Water cooling is where it's at Buy Honda
