Wow! Outstanding job on this bike. Clean and super tasteful. I LOVE the understated theme and total lack of garish bling. This is exactly what I'd like to do when I finally get my Strat/Roadliner. Looks so killer. Kudos!
Man, that is a sharp looking bike. Just realized this video is 11 yrs old. There are plenty of these available for sale out there, it's inspiring what you can do with them.
Thanks for the kind words about my Black Beast. It was a great bike for sure. I put 92,000+ miles on it before I sold it for my current bike, a 2015 Harley Davidson Roadglide Special. Once again thanks for the kind words.
I never noticed all the smaller things like the steel lines and the acrylic plate for the phone. Nice stuff man hopefully ill start rivaling you soon...hopefully.
+S Womack Do you still have the lowers from the stratoliner? If so, would you be interested in selling them? Just purchased my first Stratoliner Deluxe, it's a 2010 & love the bike so far!
Well after putting 90,600 miles on this bike in four years time, it was time too let it go. I sold it and just purchased a new Harley Davidson 2015 Roadglide Special. Truly a great bike with all the bells and whistles.
+S Womack How are you finding the power/engine the the 2015 glide? I know the high-output 103 is supposed to be an improvement over the previous 103, but when I test drove the glide earlier this year, I was a bit let down. It felt peppy, but didn't have the grunt the Roadliner's beastly mill has. Of course, I wish the yamaha had 6 speeds - it needs an overdrive gear. I've been test driving baggers for a few months and I've settle on the Roadliner because of the bang for the buck factor. If I had more money though, I'd be getting the Road Glide.
The Yamaha 1900 113 C.I. is something special for sure. The new Harley 103 High Output is great once you remove the exhaust system and add a new exhaust system. Once you install a set of headers and some slip-on's the bike wakes up nicely for sure.
Ah, ok gotcha. Is that a "stage 1" upgrade? What exhaust/headers did you end up installing? One of the nice things about a Harley is the HUGE world of aftermarket hardware; so many options!
Mr. Womack I'm not sure if I asked you already but do you still have the Tour Pak or if you call it a Trunk from your STRAT? Or have you already sold it?
SWomack, did you have the PCS Chip seat on your Raider when you had it? Do you possibly have any pictures of it on the bike if so that you can post? Trying to decide if I want to pull the trigger on it for my Raider! Thanks bro
His third gear blew out at like 30k miles and yamaha covered it.. not the same with me, my 2010 raider blew third gear at 20k miles and yamaha told me to kick rocks.. was going to cost 3500 to fix, bike was worth 5500 max... fck these bikes, and to hell with yamaha
How come Yamaha can make a big cruiser like the Stratoliner for less than $17k but Harley wants $22 to $25k for their big cruiser. What a rip off. Paying for the brand.
I'm not particularly a fan of them for other reasons, but they typically have a great look and sound. A lot of what they do is marketing, and it works. It's only a ripoff to people who want one and cannot afford one (I personally can afford one, but do not want one)... Considering Harley's market share, I'd say they've succeeded as their user base flocks to their bikes.
83,000 Miles and still running fantastic.

The Black Beast is a beautiful work of art! You definitely made it unique! Love the personal touches you added to it!💪😎👍
Thanks. That was a fantastic bike for sure.

@@bullitt79 my Stratoliner was an amazing bike. I put over 90,000 miles on it and enjoyed every mile 👍🏻
Beautiful, a truly sweet ride... excellent job on the customization... we have the same taste and attention to detail... just as I would build one ☝️
Beautiful bike. Yamaha should have consulted you for the Stratoliner/Roadliner series bikes. They would still sell them if with looks like this.
Thinking about a Strato Deluxe very hard. Love my Yamaha, everyone I've ever owned.
What a great bike! And great walk-around video!! Thanks for posting!
I went with a full Vance & Hines system.
Power Dual headers and 4" big oval slip-on's. It is one great setup for sure.
Thanks for the kind words about my Black Beast. It was a great bike for sure. I put 92,000+ miles on it before I sold it for my current bike, a 2015 Harley Davidson Roadglide Special. Once again thanks for the kind words.
Are you going to get the new 2017 Road Glide with the 107? Very similar engine to the Stratoliner...
Man that bike is sweet. Love what you've done to it. Ride safe brutha.
SWomack, it's RedRoadie from the Strat Deluxe forums!
Bike is lookin' awesome, as always!
Happy riding, man!
Proud 💗
I never noticed all the smaller things like the steel lines and the acrylic plate for the phone.
Nice stuff man hopefully ill start rivaling you soon...hopefully.
Almost at 88,000 miles on this bike and still couldn't be happier with it.
Almost at 75,000 miles and the bike is still bullet proof. Still digging this sled for sure.
bike looks great. good job with picking accessories
Very nice. May be picking one up soon.
I'd say you're good to go beautiful bike God bless you
The fairing comes on the Stratoliner Deluxe so it's a Yamaha product.
And so are the lower fairings, a Yamaha product.
I don't have speakers in my lowers
But I'm sure a 5.25 speaker could be mounted with a custom faceplate backer.
Amazing bike. Could you please name brand or model of that fairing and those oplastic crash bar covers. Thnx
Duals can make this bike look way better
I still have the original front fender and two windshields. I also have a pair of lowers.
+S Womack Do you still have the lowers from the stratoliner? If so, would you be interested in selling them? Just purchased my first Stratoliner Deluxe, it's a 2010 & love the bike so far!
Sorry i Sold Them
Bike is one mean machine and it is running as good as the day I bought it
Wow
Hi there. Bike looks great! I was wondering if you know the Kuryakyn part numbers for the axle and down tube spikes. Don't want to order wrong ones.
Black beauty 😎
It was a fantastic bike for sure
Where did you get the floorboard pegs!! Can’t find them anywhere for my roadliner
Thanks DrJekyl30.
This bike is a part of my soul.
Do you an link for the floorboard covers? Those look awesome 👌
Well so far my bike has won Bike Of The Month on four different forums. It's been a real honor
looks great
Every Road Kind owner ever thinks.
If only I thought ahead.

Dope video
Now that’s a review!
Yes Sir 👍🏻
Swomack what was that app called again for GPS/MPH on your audio system video man. Sorry couldnt hear you over your speakers
Good stuff!
~Dastardly60
Did you keep the factory bars on the Strat? Also, got any Strat parts laying around you want to sale?
Eric
What's Up Buddy
You were just in my backyard is all.
LOL
Hope all is well
Swomack
I'm sure your Stratoliner is long sold, but I'm interested in who made your top box and mount for my own bike?
Nice 😁
Mr. Womack I'm not sure if I asked you already but do you still have the Tour Pak or if you call it a Trunk from your STRAT?
Or have you already sold it?
SWomack, did you have the PCS Chip seat on your Raider when you had it? Do you possibly have any pictures of it on the bike if so that you can post? Trying to decide if I want to pull the trigger on it for my Raider! Thanks bro
yep
I had the PCS chip seat om my Raider and it was great.
How did you remove the forks on the tank?
How many miles now? Would you entertain selling your lowers?
Also damn your test ride oakleys, the promotion didn't happen here.
Joe VStar
The app no longer exists just so you know. the app was called Cyclesounds & once again they closed it down.
+S Womack thanks for the response....
what makes the fairing
Thanks Brother King
Thanks Brother DeltaACM1899
Thanks brother

Thanks sir...
Sorry but I sold them. Congrats on your sled
Nice bike. This bike is Street Glide clone
For sale sir...??
I sold it years ago
So in 50k miles how much maintenance have you had to do besides regular maintenance?
His third gear blew out at like 30k miles and yamaha covered it.. not the same with me, my 2010 raider blew third gear at 20k miles and yamaha told me to kick rocks.. was going to cost 3500 to fix, bike was worth 5500 max... fck these bikes, and to hell with yamaha
