This is a joke, right?
Are you blind? It's obviously a copy. I mean... it has two wheels and a v-twin engine in it! The fact that it's got a different frame, different wheels, different tank and fenders, different pipes, and seat are irrelevant. It's just a copy of Honda.

Yeah it is kinda a joke...I'm merely stating that the Raider's style is a very obviously an echo from the cruiser styles of the 80's (and other bikes beside the VLX)... notice the similiar rake, the similiar downward angle of the frame/tank, and the familiar bobbed fender at the rear... about the only thing that didn't come back was the buckhorn handlebars, hehe.
I'm sure the Raider is a fine bike, but you have to give props where props is due, and when it comes to giving props to the style of the Raider, The 80's is where it's at
Much like my bike's sense of style comes from the 40's-50's...
Nothin wrong with it.
