Engineered by Headbanger for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2012 Headbanger Gypsy Soul relies on a 1530 cc (93.4 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the Gypsy Soul measures 233 kg (514 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 600 mm (23.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,640 mm (64.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
