At the heart of the 2011 Highland 507cc MX cross - motocross motorcycle, Highland relies on a 507 cc (30.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1 mm (0 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,486 mm (58.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 6.06-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
