The carburetor version of the 159.7cc, oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine with 4-valves produces power output of 12.14 kW @ 8000 rpm (16.5 PS @8000 rpm) But the good thing is the torque output remains the same on both variants - 14.8Nm at 6500rpm. Now one special thing about this engine 4V which stands for 4 valves, now the question is what the benefits are. Talking about that almost every motorcycle engine contains 2 valves per cylinder but this one has 4 and for that reason the main advantage will be it will allow for more airflow through greater coverage, placement of the spark plug in the center of the head for better flame circulation leading to greater efficiency, and not only that it will easily produce power than before. So the engine will produce more power without doing any extra activities and the longevity will also be increased for this reason. This engine has powerful compression ratio as well which is 10.15:1 and TCI Ignition Type, and the Power to Weight Ratio is 0.0843 KW/kg or 0.0849 KW/KG.
