Overview
The 2017 Yamaha Raider Bullet Cowl is a cruiser from the Raider family, produced in 2017. Its air-cooled, 1,854 cm³ V-twin makes 90 hp (67 kW), and the motorcycle has a wet weight of 332.9 kg.
A 696 mm seat height gives a low seating position, while the 332.9 kg wet weight can make slow-speed maneuvering demanding. The 15.9-liter tank and listed fuel consumption of 5.60 liters/100 km correspond to an estimated range of about 284 km; belt final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Low seat
At 696 mm, the seat sits low and can make it easier for riders to put their feet down at a stop.
Belt final drive
The belt drive avoids the regular cleaning and adjustment required by a chain.
Strong braking setup
Hydraulic dual front discs and a hydraulic rear disc provide disc braking at both ends.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speeds
At 332.9 kg wet, the Raider can take more effort to maneuver in tight spaces and at walking pace.
Limited tank range
The 15.9-liter tank gives an estimated range of about 284 km, so longer rides can involve relatively frequent fuel stops.
Short rear suspension travel
The rear wheel has 89 mm of travel, leaving less room to absorb large bumps than the front suspension's 130 mm.

How to measure
Stand barefoot with your back to a wall. Hold a book firmly between your legs, then measure from the floor to the top edge of the book.
Estimated ground reach
Both feet likely flat
You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
