I tried a Harley Road King prior to buying my Stratoliner. Absolutely no regrets. These bikes are beasts. Never a breakdown, incredible torque, nimble, a smooth pleasure to ride. You will not be disappointed. From my FaceBook post on Yamaha Stratoliner/Roadliner Owners: "Great bike, great price! People that have never ridden one, don’t have a clue!!!!!" "Strats are 1854 cc and referred to as 1900 cc. Tremendous torque, plenty of power when riding double with luggage. Solo it’s a monster." "Great deal!" "... ok, my brother lives in Dallas I'm forwarding this ad for him to look at if not sold by next week." "...good luck if I were in the market it would be gone."

The 2009 Stratoliner S that I have is very powerful, quick, comfortable, stylish, with agility. I have ridden motorcycles for 50 years and am 61 years old. The Stratoliner is the travel version of the roadliner. The only thing that I can think of that I would change about the Stratoliner is for the motorcycle to have increased breathing for the cooling system. It has an 1854 CC / 113.1 Ci engine that requires optimum cooling.

Traded my midweight (900vn) in for the 06 Strat last Nov. Had 6,000 mi on it at purchase. Just completed 5,000 mi RT from Houston to Tacoma, WA via midwest, Montana, Idaho, etc. On some interstates I cruised at 85 to 90 for 2-3 hr stretches. The Yami performed flawlessly. I can't begin to explain what an incredible performer this bike is. Over mtn. passes (11,000 ft. Monarch in CO, for example) on twisties, in 100 degree plus heat, never a miss. I will add fairing when I can afford it, but for now, I'll keep enjoying every pulse of the strats powerhouse twin, its balance and smoothness. A big TX 'hats off' to Yamaha for making the best cruiser you can ride.

Just upgraded from a V-Star Silverado 650. A bit nervous about the size difference, but after an extended test ride felt very comfortable. This bike is a joy to ride and look at. After several Yamahas and Hondas this is the ultimate cruiser. Very smooth, handles very easily. Fast, stable and throaty. Corners surprisingly well for such a big bike. Only issues are the relatively small bags and the slight glare at night from the instrument panel. Almost perfect, and the most fun I have had on a motorcycle (after 40 years of riding).

I just bought this bike May 26, and my wife and I love it. We have not been on a bike in 31 years and were concerned about being able to handle such a big motorcycle, but this bike is a dream to ride. It handles great and has no vibration. The power is unbelieveable. She wished the back seat had more comfort and I need a back rest bad. The glare on the winshield for the guages is bad at night. But over all we love it.
