0* DOWN, 0* PAYMENT, 0* INTEREST NEW YORK • The Mean Streak cruiser's high performance is based in traditional hot-rodding techniques. Bigger valves. Higher lift cams. Free-breathing exhoust. Larger throttle bodies. Reprogrammed digital fuel injection. Different digital ignition timing. New lower transmission ratios. • Mean Streak's performance pockage includes solid Kawasaki engineering and technology: liquid cooling. 4-valve alloy cylinder heads. lightweight pistons. Single Overhead Cams. Dual spork plugs per cylinder. Hydraulic valve lash adjusters. • Each cylinder has a 102mm bore and 90mm stroke which provides punchy response and plenty of high-rpm power when needed. • The digital fuel injection system with two huge 40mm throttle bodies feeds each cylinder. A separate intake tract for each throttle body provides smooth engine operation, plus the tip of each injector contains four nozzles, with two of those aimed at each intoke valve for optimum fuel atomization.
