2009-Harley Davidson FXCWC Rocker C Pictures





The New to Harley-Davidson’s line is the stylish Rocker C featuring the innovative Rockertail rear end, mounting a form-fitting fender directly to the swing arm just an inch above the wide 240mm X 8 inch rear tire. The bike has the look of a slammed-down hard tail custom machine, but rides smoothly on modern suspension while the rear fender and wheel move together. The big solo saddle is a mere 24.5 inches off the ground and conceals a cool surprise. When a Rocker C rider wants to give someone a ride, the saddle can be lifted and a passenger pillion on chrome plated struts deployed and locked into place. The process is quick and easy and requires no tools.

2009 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion Photo Galleries





2009 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion Features :
Engine

Newly-developed 600cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke inline 4-cylinder engine The XJ6 Diversion is driven by a newly developed 600cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke inline 4-cylinder engine which has been specifically designed to produce brisk performance together with an easy, predictable and linear power band. Featuring bore x stroke dimensions of 65.5 mm x 44.5 mm, together with a high compression ratio of 12.2:1, this strong and responsive new inline-4 cylinder engine produces maximum horsepower 57.0 kW (78 PS) at 10,000 rpm, with maximum torque 59.7 Nm (6.1 kg-m) at 8,500 rpm.

Chassis

Newly-designed tubular steel diamond-type frame In order to be able to offer XJ6 Diversion riders strong all-round running performance, together with a low seat height and slim overall chassis dimensions, we have developed an all-new diamond-type frame. Manufactured from high tensile steel pipes which are 31.8 mm in diameter and 2.3 mm thick, this attractive new frame features a very simple and neat design which has been created using the minimum number of bends and welds.

New 41mm diameter front forks

To complement the new slimline tubular chassis, the XJ6 Diversion is equipped with newly-designed conventional front forks featuring 41 mm diameter tubes which deliver a good balance of rigidity together with excellent shock absorption characteristics.

ABS anti-lock braking system

The new XJ6 Diversion is also available with a compact new lightweight ABS design. This new system has been developed to offer improved feel when activated, and features a linear control (3-position) ABS, instead of the previous two mode system, which operated in ‘increased brake pressure’ and ‘decreased brake pressure’ modes.
