2022 · Cruiser
The 2022 Road Type9 Evo emerges as a significant contender in the cruiser segment, carrying forward a lineage known for its distinctive style and relaxed riding experience. This iteration builds upon previous Type9 models, aiming to refine the formula for modern riders. In the competitive landscape, it finds itself up against established rivals such as the Harley-Davidson Street Glide and the Indian Chief Dark Horse, offering an alternative for those seeking a unique take on the classic American cruiser.
At the heart of the Type9 Evo is a robust V2, four-stroke engine, displacing a substantial 1337.0 ccm (81.58 cubic inches). This generous displacement ensures ample torque for effortless cruising, providing that characteristic V-twin rumble that many cruiser enthusiasts appreciate. Despite its powerful engine, the motorcycle carries a wet weight of 270.0 kg (595.2 pounds). Fuel capacity is a practical 10.00 litres (2.64 US gallons), allowing for reasonable distances between fill-ups, though perhaps not for extreme long-haul touring without careful planning.
Riding characteristics of the Type9 Evo prioritize comfort and a low-slung feel, typical of its cruiser category. The seat height, at a very accessible 636 mm (25.0 inches) (if adjustable, this is the lowest setting), makes it approachable for a wide range of riders, fostering confidence at stops and during low-speed maneuvers. This low seating position, combined with a relaxed handlebar reach, contributes to an upright and comfortable riding posture, ideal for extended periods in the saddle. The chassis is designed to absorb road imperfections, providing a smooth and composed ride, whether navigating urban environments or enjoying scenic routes.
The Road Type9 Evo 2022 is aimed squarely at riders who value classic cruiser aesthetics, a comfortable ride, and the distinctive feel of a large V-twin engine. Its accessible seat height and substantial engine make it suitable for both experienced riders and those looking for a manageable yet powerful cruiser. It offers a compelling option for individuals seeking a motorcycle that prioritizes relaxed journeys and a strong on-road presence, standing as a solid choice within the cruiser market.
