Simple enough:

Doomrider: 200 points,
WS 6, BS 5, S 5, T 4 (5), I 6, W 3, Ld 9, Sv 3+, A 3

Equipment: Mark of Slaanesh. Chaos Bike w/ Plasma Rifle and Meltagun. Doomrider may fire both in a turn. Power Sword.

Special Rules: Daemon, Hit and Run
As Fast As He Came: Doomrider may only join units of Bikers with the Mark of Slaanesh. Bikers with the Mark count as Troops in a primary detachment with Doomrider.

Needs more cocaine.

Feels really uninspired. Doesn't have any special rules that actually do anything that makes him Doomrider. Feels like a Chaos Lord on a bike. He's a daemon prince for Slaanesh's sake.

. Alternate ability to grant Deep Strike to his squad/re-enter Ongoing Reserves perhaps, and replacing the Power Sword with a Greater Etherblade. Just trying not to go super-op compared to enabling Bike Troops.

Doomrider can only join a unit of slaanesh bikers and the squad may not be joined by any other models either before or during the game.

Need more cocaine:
At the start of your first 5 turns roll on a Hysterical frenzy table (as via Slaanesh psychic discipline power that provides either +1 ini +1 str +1attack) and apply the resulting stat modifier to Doomrider and his unit. The effect lasts till the end of the game and is cumulative.
Starting from turn 6, every member of the squad, except for the Doomrider himself, suffers a single wound with no armor saves allowed. Cause drugs are bad.

Needs far more cocaine.

You're missing the most important tthing about Doom Rider which is that he's a Daemon Prince on a Jetbike.

Why not just give a fabius bile like rule where Doom rider hands out combat drugs to all bikers? Or the exhaust of the bike billows warp dust! All non Chaos units caught near or in the previous path of Doom must make a toughness check or suffer 1 of 6 sickness.

Correction, needs more warp dust. That fine *** warp dust to be precise.

Daemon Prince stats are pretty static, anything less is non-canon.

His price needs to reflect DP stats too.
