The 2012 MY Raider SCL is a custom line chopper for those who feel like owning and riding a truly exclusive bike. Since SCL stands for Star Custom Line and Yamaha builds only 500 such machines in a run, you're lucky to get one, even a previously owned one, since it looks like customers get them because they really love them a lot and are willing to pay some extra for special editions.

The 2012 MY Yamaha Raider SCL comes with some elements you just don't meet in everyday bikes: steel mesh throttle cable, clutch and brake lines, custom Performance Machine chrome wheels, two-tone matching orange leather seat. With the classic 1854cc V-twin powering the 2012 MY Raider SCL, riders will get all the thrill and even more. Massive 2-in-1 exhaust, an aluminum chassis and incredible, street-legal 36-degree rake, for a radical and rare look.

Just like the previous year model, the 2012 Raider SCL will be built in a 500-piece limited run, so getting one means you're really lucky. Even if going for a previously owned one, these are hard to find because those who feel like owning and riding a truly exclusive bike are buying it to ride and nurse it, not to sell it in a year or two.

The 2012 Yamaha Raider SCL comes with custom elements you just don't meet in everyday bikes: steel mesh throttle cable, clutch and brake lines, two-tone leather seat matching the red color and custom Performance Machine chrome wheels with chrome pulley and belt guard.

With the classic 1854cc V-twin powering the 2012 Raider SCL, riders will get all the thrill and even more. Massive 2-in-1 exhaust, an aluminum chassis and incredible, street-legal 39-degree rake, for a radical and rare look: 36-degree rake and 6 degree yoke angle.

The 2013 Star Raider SCL is an unforgiving enemy of everything stock. With SCL standing for Star Custom Line, this bike is anything but a common, off-the-mill big-bore cruiser as it exhibits a plethora of bespoke-grade trim accents one just doesn't usually get ex works. Limited to 500 units only, the 2013 Raider SCL is set to instantly become a collectors' prized machine. The wheels have been developed by Star and Performance Machine, so it simply can't get any better than this. They also receive a chrome finish to match the rest of the accents and adds a nifty contrast to the two-tone premium leather embroidered seat.

2013 also brings an improved clutch requiring less force to operate, increasing to comfort during longer hauls. The tank-mounted instrumentation is easily readable and offer comprehensive data on the bike and ride, including self-diagnostics. Still the 2013 Raider SCL is surprisingly nimble thanks to the aluminum frame and smart engineering which reduces weight to a minimum, for a more rewarding riding experience.
