You haven't experienced acceleration like this since Mother yanked you out of the China Department.
With 85 ft. lbs. of torque at 4900rpm, the 91hp, 1203cc Cyclone® M2 produces plenty of off-the-line muscle the instant you let out the clutch. Adjustable suspension and 43mm of front fork assure precise, responsive handling whether you're dodging around town or dishing it out in the corners. Roomy, neutral seating offers both comfort and performance, while serious stopping power comes compliments of a six-piston caliper front brake. New for 2001, a redesigned dash complete with tachometer for superior street performance.
Torque on.
