At the heart of the 2005 Victory Hammer custom - cruiser motorcycle, Victory relies on a 1638.8 cc (100 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 101.0 x 102.0 mm (4.0 x 4.0 inches) with a 9.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Hammer measures 298 kg (657 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,669 mm (65.7 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 17.03-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
