2007 Triumph America Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Triumph for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2007 Triumph America features a 865 cc (52.8 cu in) air-cooled twin, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 55 HP (40.1 kW) at 6,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 69 Nm (50.9 lb-ft) at 4,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 63.6 HP per liter and a 1,950 rpm working window between peak torque (4,800 rpm) and peak power (6,750 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the America measures 225.4 kg (497 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.24 HP/kg (4.1 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 1,655 mm (65.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 16.65-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
