The 1996 MY Buell S1 Lightning has, at its heart, an air-cooled, four-stroke, 1203cc, 45-degree V-Twin powerplant paired to a five-speed manual transmission that can reach a maximum power output of 101 horsepower and 129 Nm of torque. | |||
This naked machine shares it's chassis with the Thunderbolt, but has been redesigned to be as light and maneuverable as possible. It comes standard with features such as a 40mm telescopic front fork coupled to a rear adjustable mono-shock, front and rear disc brakes, an under-belly exhaust system, for a lower center of gravity, a small, dual seat, a small windscreen, cast-aluminum wheels and a low-maintenance, Kevlar-reinforced belt final drive. | |||
