2010 American IronHorse Texas Chopper Base Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2010 American IronHorse Texas Chopper Base custom - cruiser motorcycle, American IronHorse relies on a 1819.1 cc (111 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 110 HP (80.3 kW) while maximum torque reaches 155.9 Nm (115 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 60.5 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the Texas Chopper Base measures 317 kg (699 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.35 HP/kg (2.88 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 643 mm (25.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
