2016 Star Stryker Bullet CowlThe Bullet Cowl is the first variation on the Stryker theme from Star, and it gives the mid-size chopper-inspired cruiser an aggressive look, while also offering a bit of wind protection for the rider.With the forks kicked out at a 40-degree attitude and a 21-inch front wheel, the Stryker Bullet Cowl looks like a tough customer.
