This bike features a liquid-cooled 798cc Parallel-twin engine thats capable of producing 90 horsepower at 8 000 rpm Maximum torque is 63 0 ft-lbs occurring at 5 800 rpm Fuel injection makes for effortless cold starts and smooth power delivery The 12:1 compression ratio is slightly higher than the average of all 2014 sport-touring 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 |
