2017 NCR New Blue Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by NCR for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2017 NCR New Blue relies on a 1100 cc (67.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 116 HP (84.7 kW) at 8,450 rpm while maximum torque reaches 106 Nm (78.2 lb-ft) at 6,700 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 105.5 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (6,700 rpm) and peak power (8,450 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 New Blue measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.8 HP/kg (1.25 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,400 mm (55.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
