The V302C cruiser is a lightweight V-twin roadster with big-bore aspirations, providing an excitingly deep growl and surprising performance. Powered by a liquid-cooled 298cc V-twin with eight valves, the SOHC EFI-fueled V302C produces 30hp (22kW) at 8,500 rpm, and 19.5ft.Lbs. (26.5Nm) of torque. Power is put to the ground through a manual six-speed transmission via a silent belt final drive.

Rider features begin with the shorty drag bars for a sporty feel complemented by the upside-down fork legs and rear dual shocks. Centered on the bars is a round full digital dash with tach surrounding a speedometer, fuel gauge, gear indicator, odometer, and clock. The overall look of the V302C is dramatic with its blacked-out bars, wheels, exhaust, fork legs, and engine. All lighting is LED, featuring a ringed driving light inside the headlight’s black bucket.

The fat, midsized-diameter tires maintain the V302C’s low profile, low center of gravity, and low, low one-piece seat height of 27.1”, with a 120/80×16 front tire and a 150/80×15 rear. This low-carried weight drives the V302C’s appeal to a widely diverse group of riders from neophytes to knowledgeable rockers. The 300mm front brake disc is mated to a radial-mounted caliper for exceptional feel, backed up by a 240mm rear disc, each with ABS. The whole package weighs in at a low weight of 367 lbs. (167KG).
