Built around Victory's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2008 Victory Kingpin 8-Ball utilizes a 1638.8 cc (100 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 101.0 x 102.0 mm (4.0 x 4.0 inches).
On the scales, the Kingpin 8-Ball measures 303.9 kg (670 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 673 mm (26.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,666 mm (65.6 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.
