2008 Yamaha Warrior Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Yamaha's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2008 Yamaha Warrior features a 1671.6 cc (102 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 97.0 x 113.0 mm (3.8 x 4.4 inches) with a 8.4:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Warrior measures 277.6 kg (612 lbs) dry.
