Positioned in Saxon's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Saxon Crown pairs a 1573 cc (96 cu in) v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 94.0 x 116.8 mm (3.7 x 4.6 inches) with a 10.1:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Crown measures 283.5 kg (625 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 635 mm (25 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,880 mm (74 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12.3-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 184 km (114 miles) between fill-ups.
Within MotoLibrary's Saxon archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 2008 to 2012, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
