1998 Laverda 750 S Formula Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Laverda's sport motorcycle platform, the 1998 Laverda 750 S Formula relies on a 748 cc (45.6 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 92 HP (67.2 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 74 Nm (54.6 lb-ft) at 7,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 123 HP per liter and a 1,700 rpm working window between peak torque (7,800 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the 750 S Formula measures 185 kg (408 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.5 HP/kg (2.01 kg per horsepower).
