|
|
|
|
Lay-down design cylinder head—40 degrees forward— optimizes weight distribution, straightens intake tracts for improved cylinder filling, and allows frame to pass over instead of around the engine for great strength and a narrow chassis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Closed-deck cylinder block increases strength and allows a narrow engine in spite of big, 77 mm bores.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Narrow-angle five-valve combustion chambers produce a highly efficient 12.4:1 compression ratio. Big valves and high-lift cams flow plenty of air.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Carburized connecting rods with fractured big ends produce a quick-revving engine with excellent high-rpm durability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
High silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder sleeves ensure great heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Strong, yet lightweight clutch and close-ratio six-speed gearbox with triangulated shaft layout for great strength, compactness, and quicker acceleration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Titanium underseat exhaust system (with stainless steel midpipe and catalyst) contains a titanium EXUP valve for a broad, seamless powerband.
|
|
|
|
|
|
High-efficiency curved radiator and an aluminum liquid-cooled oil cooler maintain stable operating temperature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Direct ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high output magneto deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
AC generator behind cylinder block produces a narrow engine with excellent cornering clearance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Overall frame width of only 15.6 inches produces comfortable ergonomics as well as efficient aerodynamic penetration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Controlled Fill die cast, truss-type swingarm is very strong and longer, for optimal traction and feedback.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Controlled Fill die cast, detachable aluminum subframe is light, strong and allows easy rear shock access.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dual 320 mm front disc brakes; light/strong, forged one-piece radial-mount calipers and Brembo radial-pump front master cylinder with adjustable lever delivers amazing braking power and controllability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fully adjustable KYB inverted telescopic front fork with 43 mm tubes provides 4.7 inches of travel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Piggyback rear shock gives 5.1 inches of wheel travel, full adjustability and a lightweight, accessible aluminum preload adjustment collar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Light, five-spoke wheels enhance acceleration, deceleration, handling and suspension action.
|
|
