Ecosse Heretic Ag
Key specifications
Overview
The 2007 Ecosse Heretic Ag motorcycle stands as a remarkable entry in the naked bike category, capturing the essence of raw power and minimalist design. Designed for discerning riders who appreciate both performance and aesthetics, the Heretic Ag is not merely a motorcycle; it’s a statement of intent. With its striking presence and engineering finesse, it commands attention on the road while offering an exhilarating riding experience that few can match. This machine is for those who seek the thrill of the ride without the distractions of excessive bodywork, providing a pure connection between rider and machine. At the heart of the Heretic Ag lies a formidable V2, four-stroke engine with an impressive displacement of 1868.24 cc (114 cubic inches). This powerhouse produces a breathtaking 167.62 horsepower and 130 Nm of torque, delivering a thrilling acceleration that will satisfy even the most demanding riders. The Mikuni flat slide carburettor ensures a responsive throttle, allowing for precise control as the bike surges forward. Paired with a smooth 6-speed transmission and a chain final drive, the Heretic Ag offers an exceptional balance of power and agility. The lightweight frame, crafted from chrome-molybdenum, contributes to its nimble handling, making it a joy to maneuver through twisty backroads or urban landscapes. Equipped with premium Ohlins suspension both front and rear, the Heretic Ag provides remarkable stability and comfort, even on less-than-perfect surfaces. The double disc front brakes, paired with 6-piston calipers, ensure that stopping power is as impressive as the bike's acceleration, instilling confidence in every ride. With a rake of 25 degrees and a trail of 132 mm, the bike handles predictably, giving riders the ability to carve through corners with precision. Its sleek silver finish adds a touch of elegance, making it not just a performance machine, but also a work of art. **
