At the heart of the 2011 Highland 950cc Viking naked motorcycle, Highland features a 950 cc (58 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 841 mm (33.1 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,384 mm (54.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 9.46-liter (2.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
