Positioned in Highland's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2007 Highland Dirt Trac pairs a 749 cc (45.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 83.8 HP (61.2 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 84 Nm (62 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 111.9 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Dirt Trac measures 129 kg (284 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 HP/kg (1.54 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,400 mm (55.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
