You can get this information on the Mean Streak as well as most any other bike on the website below. Or you can look in the bike of any "Motorcyclist" magazine.
Yea...I've only found the hard numbers on the 1500...It's my understanding that the 1600 makes about the same max HP as the 1500, but the 1600 makes more power in the low to mid range, so that should improve it's quarter mile times slightly. Hopefully it'll get into the 12's.
I'm trying to decide on the pipes too, what are you leaning towards?
