Model Overview

Specs (below)

ENGINE

Re-bored (from 95 to 97mm) cylinders that boosts displacement from 98 to 102 cubic inches (1602 to 1670cc), pumping out incredible, asphalt ripping low-rpm torque and acceleration!

Air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV, 48° cylinders with pushrod valve actuation keeps engine height down and ensures more uniform heat dissipation due to absence of a cam chain case.

New-design, larger-bore cylinder features an all-new head with larger cooling fins, ceramic composite bore plating and a one-piece head cover (for greater rigidity around the rocker arm) to provide more efficient heat dissipation.

Two-valve cylinder head design uses two spark plugs per cylinder for efficient combustion and high power at all RPM.

Reworked valve train includes redesigned intake and exhaust rocker arms that reduce inertia during high-rpm performance and modified, higher-lift cams for increased horsepower.

Hydraulic valve lifters driven by twin camshafts deliver exceptional performance and lower maintenance needs.

New-design, larger-bore pistons feature durable and lightweight forged construction to accommodate higher-RPM performance with reduced vibration and less reciprocating mass.

Rare earth flywheel magnet for faster-revving power delivery and increased high-RPM durability.

All-new twin-bore electronic fuel injection (EFI) with throttle position sensor (TPS), aspirated by freer-breathing twin air cleaner system, ensures optimal fuel delivery, greater throttle response and maximum power throughout the rev range.

State-of-the-art electronic control unit (ECU) ensures precisely metered fuel delivery and optimal ignition spark control using 3-D digital CD ignition mapping for each cylinder.

High-performance 2-into-1 exhaust system features stainless steel headers and a massive muffler that boosts horsepower while putting out a throaty V-twin growl.

Dry sump lubrication system uses a handy spin-on filter.

5-speed transmission features close-ratio gearing for spine-tingling roll-on performance.

Low-maintenance belt drive system gets an all-new, narrower-design belt that reduces unsprung weight for improved rear suspension performance.

Electric starting system features solenoid activated auto-decompressor for easy starting.

CHASSIS / SUSPENSION

All-new, specially designed, aluminum double cradle frame increases rigidity by 41% (over standard Road Star frame) and offers tremendous strength and durability with minimal flex.

All-new, R1-derived truss-type aluminum swingarm, 42% lighter than comparable swingarms, offers superb rigidity and a forward mounted pivot point that ensures excellent stability at speed and while cornering.

Highly ridged, R1-derived 41mm Kayaba inverted telescopic fork with 5.3" of travel for exceptional sport-oriented performance.

Beefy cast aluminum top and bottom triple clamps help increase fork rigidity.

Link-type, preload-adjustable single rear shock delivers outstanding rear-wheel tracking for precise handling and plush ride quality.

Dual 298mm front disc brakes feature R1 derived, one-piece 4-piston calipers with fully floating rotors and 282mm rear disc brake with dual-piston caliper combine for supersport-spec stopping power

Lightweight, cast-aluminum' 3-spoke wheels wear low-profile, competition-spec 120/70-ZR18 front and a huge 200/50-ZR17 rear Dunlop Sportmax radials for awesome, launching-off-the-line traction and cornering grip.

Extra-long, 65.7" wheelbase and deep, plush saddle create long and low center of gravity, added rider comfort and well-balanced handling.

Wide, swept-back, 1 "-diameter, rubber mounted handlebars are easy to reach and reduce vibration to minimize fatigue.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Lustrous paint and chrome accents (air cleaner, air scoop, mirrors and more) to create a machine as good looking as it is powerful.

Trick digital headlight-mounted tachometer, odometer and dual trip meters with triple clamp-mounted analog speedometer.

Trick, R6-style LED taillight provides excellent visibility and very sano look.

Steel fenders combine timeless styling with sleek profile.

Extra-wide, 4.0-gallon fuel tank features low-fuel warning light and R1 type automatic tripmeter.

Seat and fork locks both integrated into main ignition switch for extra convenience.

Powerful 12V 60/55-watt multi-reflector halogen headlight maximizes nighttime visibility and comes with a chrome finish.
