Engine

80-cubic-inch (1304cc) liquid-cooled, single overhead cam60-degree V-twin with dual counterbalancers offers plenty of smooth performance.Computer-controlled twin-barrel fuel injection provides optimalmixture whatever the temperature or altitude. Ignition and fuel injectionmaps are optimized for Stryker’s performance character.Four valves per cylinder (36mm intake, 32mm exhaust) provideoptimum combustion efficiency; roller rocker arms reducefriction for better performance and reduced wear.Ceramic-composite cylinder sleeves contain 100mm forgedpistons for excellent durability and longevity.9.5:1 compression ratio and aggressive cam timing produceplenty of power across the board and a distinctive exhaust note. Forged connecting rods ride a single crankpin for true V-twinsound and power.Smooth-shifting five-speed transmission feeds power to anefficient, low-maintenance belt drive.Sly cooling system routes liquid through hidden hoses andinternal engine passages for air-cooled looks and liquid-cooledperformance. Oil filter is easy to get to but also tucked nearlyout of sight for clean, pure looks.New exhaust system, designed specifically for Stryker, adds tothe awesome look of this bike while also optimizing its engineperformance––and it has a magnificent exhaust note.Chassis/SuspensionStryker delivers handling unmatched in this mid-size customcruiser segment. And the steering head that is visible on thisdouble-cradle steel frame helps give the bike its lean,lightweight image.The 6° yoke and raked triple clamps combine to provide a total of 40° of fork rake. This achieves the aggressive raked out stylingimage and solid straight-line performance you’d expect, while atthe same time providing light, nimble handling characteristics,even at low speeds.Seat height is low, just 26.4 inches, letting the rider feel in rather than on the bike when riding, and enjoy having both feet planted firmly on the ground when stopped.Steel fenders —rather than cheap plastic fenders found on some competitors—are one of this bike’s authentic cruiser features. Steel fenders are ideal for customizers who want to cut, chop or modify their bikes.Cast wheels have low profile tires. A wide 210-series rear tire and 21- inch front wheel add to the aggressive attitude of the bike.The relaxed riding position is complemented by the carefully chosen handlebar position, which puts the rider’s arms comfortably level with the horizon, with a “fists-punching-the-wind” attitude.
