At the heart of the 2015 NCR M16 sport motorcycle, NCR relies on a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 200 HP (146 kW) at 7,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 200.4 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the M16 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 1.38 HP/kg (0.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure.
Within MotoLibrary's NCR archive, this model family spans 10 indexed model years from 2010 to 2021, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
