Nearly identical in every way
to HRC's championship-contending Superbike machines, the
race-crafted VTR1000 SP-2 delivers a breathtaking blast
of Super Sport street performance that can easily be adapted
to the track that gave it birth. Its powerful, hard-revving
1000cc fuel-injected V-twin engine smoothly and instantly
responds to throttle inputs with an always-exhilarating
rush of acceleration.
Its lightweight and rigid twin-spar chassis integrates
a massive yet ultra-light composite aluminum swingarm directly
off the Works race bikes, for an aggressive and exciting
ride that is not too narrowly focused, thus allowing it
to extend the most satisfying high-performance riding enjoyment
to the widest possible range of riders. In fact, the SP-2
feels so good, so neutral and so fast out on a winding road
that it makes up for long hours of city traffic getting
there to enjoy it.
