This bike uses a liquid-cooled 839cc V-twin engine thats capable of producing 76 horsepower at 8 000 rpm Maximum torque is 53 8 ft-lbs occurring at 5 000 rpm Fuel injection makes for effortless cold starts and smooth power delivery The 10:1 compression ratio is low enough to put it in the bottom 10 of all 2011 adventure motorcycles 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 88 x 69mm 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 |
