Significant performance differences outside this normal variation are as follows: Acceleration: 0–60 mph: 0.2 sec.; 0–100 mph: 0.3 sec.; quarter-mile: 0.3 sec. Top speed: 3 mph.; Braking 60–0 mph: 4'; Rear wheel horsepower: 3 hp.; Torque: 2 lb./ft. Bolded numbers in black represent the best in each category, while bolded numbers in red represent the worst. Ratings of individual bikes should only be compared within similar categories.
