Horsepower: 120 @ 8,000 rpm
Torque: 85.4 ft/lbs @ 6,500 rpm
1/4 Mile: 11.96 at 114.35 mph
All this, and it still gets 38 miles to the gallon. Even today, these numbers are impressive. Considering that they come from a bike that's 21 years old, it's even more so.
We found that there was a dearth of information on the web on our bikes, so we're trying to rectify that. In the hopes that someone will find useful information here, we've scanned several test reviews on them. These reviews come courtesy of Cycle magazine, and I certainly hope that nobody from that fine publication objects to our using it here.
