1998 Laverda 750 S Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Laverda for the sport motorcycle segment, the 1998 Laverda 750 S relies on a 748 cc (45.6 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 85 HP (62 kW) at 9,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 75 Nm (55.3 lb-ft) at 7,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 113.6 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,200 rpm) and peak power (9,200 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 measures 187 kg (412 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.45 HP/kg (2.2 kg per horsepower).
