Specs:
1,670cc, air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV, 8-valve, 48° V-twin with 4 valves per cylinder and 2 spark plugs per cylinder. Bore x Stroke 97mm x 113mm Compression Ratio 8.36:1 Hydraulic valve lifters driven by twin crankcase-mounted camshafts. Traditional pushrod valve actuation keeps overall engine height down for a lower centre of gravity. Large-diameter, forged pistons with ceramic composite-plated cylinders provide uniform heat dissipation, reduce weight, reduce friction and increase cylinder service life. Electronic fuel injection with TPS, single throttle body with dual injectors (one for each cylinder). The throttle position sensor is linked to the ECU and supplies info about throttle opening so the ECU can adjust ignition timing for optimum engine perfoemance at all rpms.
Tires: Front 130/90-16 Rear 150/80-16
4.74 gallon tank
Belt drive system is extremely low- maintenance and special narrow design drive belt and sprockets provide lightweight performance and exceptional durability.
Dry sump lubrication system with handy, spin-on oil filter, creates a lower centre of gravity by helping reduce overall engine height. The oil tank is located under the seat.
Electric starting system features solenoid-activated auto-decompressor for easy, no-hassle starting.
