The Displacement is defined as the total volume of air/fuel mixture an engine can draw in during one complete engine cycle. In a piston engine, this is the volume that is swept as the pistons are moved from top dead centre to bottom dead centre. To the layperson this is the "size" of the engine. Motorcycle engines range from 50 cc (cubic centimetres), commonly found in many small scooters, to 2294 cc, the largest production engine currently made by Triumph for its Rocket III cruiser-style motorcycle

cc or cubic centimeter is the displacement of the engine. You've head of a 3.5 liter engine? 3.5 liter or 3500cc. The cc dosen't measure the power of the engine...only the displacement. While it's often true that the larger the displacement the more power, it is not always the case. Power is measured by horsepower and tourque.
