An image of power
The VTR1000 SP-2 delivers an exhilarating racing-class image with
looks to drool over. Its aggressive racing-class response translates
equally well to top performance both on the track and on the road.
Mind blowing torque
The SP-2's power plant, a 999cm3 DOHC 8-valve V-twin engine
delivers a sizeable 4PS increase in maximum power output and a
stronger, more breathtaking surge of acceleration. Newly designed
exhaust ports feature a Works-derived shape for faster exhaust
velocity and combustion chamber evacuation.
Superbike handling
Precise control is assured via the SP-2's diamond-configuration
twin-spar aluminium frame, which houses a 'combined Pivot' for the
swingarm, which itself attaches to the engine for race-ride handling
you expect.
New style swingarm
If there's anything that really sets the SP-2 apart from its
predecessor, it is without a doubt its all-new press-forged
aluminium swingarm which delivers aggressively responsive
racing-class performance.
Real stopping power
Wide-diameter, 320mm dual floating front discs stopped by
responsive 4-piston callipers provide the necessary bite.
The VTR1000 SP-2's front calliper mounts incorporate removable stays
that accept a wide range of replacement callipers. Similarly, HRC's
familiar, five-spoke, U-section cast alloy wheels accept a wide
choice of racing slicks and road-legal rubber.
