At the heart of the 2011 Rucker Performance Shelby sport motorcycle, Rucker Performance pairs a 2097.7 cc (128 cu in) v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 160 HP (116.8 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 76.3 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Shelby measures 249.5 kg (550 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.64 HP/kg (1.56 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 584 mm (23 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,727 mm (68 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
