This bike is powered by a liquid-cooled 999cc Inline-4 engine Fuel injection makes for effortless cold starts and smooth power delivery The 12 9:1 compression ratio is just about average relative to all 2013 supersport bikes A higher compression ratio is desirable because it means an engine can do the same amount of work with less fuel leading to increased efficiency and power for a given engine size the only downside is that using low octane fuel can damage the engine A cylinder bore and stroke of 74 5 x 57 3mm makes this motor oversquare: the bore width of the cylinder is greater than its stroke length Oversquare engines excel at revving high and producing a lot of power for their displacement at the expense of low-end torque
