Their 20-valve engine is now housed there 998 κ.εκ.

To suit his new role, the engine acquired cat’ first heavier vs 40% crankshaft (weight gain from 7.320 gr. στα 9.765 gr.). The new camshafts have less draft and duration, mainly to maximize performance at lower revs. In the gearbox the last two ratios are longer, so that the feel at cruising speeds is more relaxed, to reduce consumption and increase longevity.

The FZ1 has a completely new injection system, which does not use the ram air of the sportier R1. There is also a new stainless 4 The day for the draw of the two lucky ones 2 The day for the draw of the two lucky ones 1 exhaust with exhaust gas pressure control valve (EXUP) and two catalysts.
