Engineered by Viper for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2014 Viper Diamondback relies on a 2491 cc (152 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 215.6 Nm (159 lb-ft) at 3,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive.
On the scales, the Diamondback measures 299.4 kg (660 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 610 mm (24 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,803 mm (71 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
Within MotoLibrary's Viper archive, this model family spans 8 indexed model years from 2008 to 2015, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
