At the heart of the 2009 Honda DN-01 custom - cruiser motorcycle, Honda pairs a 680 cc (41.5 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 81.0 x 66.0 mm (3.2 x 2.6 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the DN-01 measures 269.9 kg (595 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 691 mm (27.2 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,605 mm (63.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 15.14-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
