Is that stock or with exhaust/tunes modifications?


Is this measured on the special marketing dynometer, the same one that gets 150+ figures for bikes like the R1? 140 rear-wheel horsepower sounds pretty hard to swallow from an engine with the same basic architecture as the current bike, even if it has special mapping and intake-exhaust plumbing. But even if it "only" made 120-130 hp at the rear wheel, and weighed 20-40 pounds less than the current bike, it should be loads of fun. That should put it right in the 996-Mille range. I can't wait to try one.
