Posted by John on July 11, 2006, 6:26 pm, in reply to "Mid-90s 900 SS vs newer style" The downside is that the ergonomics are not as friendly. The bikes are not as pretty. The 92-98 SS is a timeless design. The black '92 SS is the rarest bike of the 92-98 series. --Previous Message--

The advantage of the new (ugly) supersports is the fuel injection. The carb bikes had some imulsion wear issues. Besides being easyier to start, carbies can be quite cranky in the morning, the FI engines make power over 1000rpm more. This is due to the carbies having long intakes. This limits high rpm operation. The carbies stop making power after 7500rpm. The FI engines will run to 8500.
