The 2006 MY MZ 1000 SF has, at its heart, a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 996cc, parallel twin cylinder powerhouse paired to a six-speed manual transmission, and can produce a claimed 117 horsepower and 98 Nm of torque.
This liter-class naked machine boasts a gritty overall performance, as well as superior maneuverability, thanks to the fully-adjustable Marzocchi upside-down front fork and the Sachs monoshock in the rear. Safety and improved performance is ensured by the Nissin braking system with dual 320mm discs in the front with 4-piston calipers, while a wide and comfortable seat ensures the rider can spend more time behind the bars.
