Torque:
Estimated 45-50 Nm (Newton-meters)
Carburetion Or Injection:
Likely utilizes carburetors (e.g., dual Dell'Orto PHM 40) or possibly an early form of fuel injection, depending on specific market variants. The manual covers 'Engine Fuel System' and 'Fuel Injection System'.
System Type:
Wet sump lubrication system (typical for this engine architecture).
System Type:
Air-cooled (as indicated by 'Engine Lubrication and Cooling' and 'Cooling system').
Instrumentation:
Basic analog gauges for speedometer, tachometer, and indicator lights. Manual covers 'Lights/Meters/Switches'.
ABS:
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) was not standard on most motorcycles of this era and model type; manual coverage implies standard braking systems.
Diagnostic Ports:
Diagnostic procedures are covered, implying access to engine control units if applicable (less common for carb-equipped models of this era).
Oil Change:
Typically every 3,000-5,000 km or annually, refer to manual for specific interval.
Valve Clearance Check:
Recommended every 6,000-10,000 km, crucial for V-twin engines.
Engine Oil:
Refer to manual for specific viscosity grade (e.g., SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50) and API service classification (e.g., SG or SH).
Brake Fluid:
DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid (check manual for exact specification).
Coolant:
Not applicable as it is air-cooled.
Electrical Connections:
Corrosion or looseness in electrical connectors can lead to intermittent faults. Regular inspection and cleaning recommended.
Carburetor Synchronization:
V-twin engines require precise carburetor synchronization for smooth running. The manual provides procedures for this.
Timing Chain Tensioner:
While not explicitly stated as an issue, the manual's detailed coverage of the engine's timing and valve train suggests proactive inspection of related components.
Diagrams Quality:
Hundreds of photos and illustrations, including exploded diagrams, aid in part identification and assembly.
Manufacturer:
Cagiva Motor S.p.A., an Italian motorcycle manufacturer known for its performance and distinctive styling.
Design Influence:
The W16 model line often utilized Ducati engines and chassis components, sharing lineage with models like the Cagiva Elefant and Ducati Pantah.
Production Era:
The W16 series was produced in the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s.
