As always, Ken knows what he is talking about, i heard from reliable source that it will be disappointment for some/lots of people, no 1400cc, no massive power gains, more like upgrade for electrics, chassis and smaller details in engine, also grips are mounted up and back , for aged riders who were young guys when the gen1 first was launched.

roddy Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 This 200hp, is it wheel or crank Curious to see what they do. With some material changes they could muck about with bore and stroke using pretty much the same design instead of a complete new engine. Don't some of the grasstrack crowd use short stroke cranks? Would let them push the revs up a bit to get a headline figure. Do we find out tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kzin Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Offset bores, bigger CC and CVVD - should help give more power and keep it in euro 6 Bottom end to remain fairly much as Gen2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
