R1 doesnt have gear reduction, same bore and stroke I believe, but different cam duration and crank weight.

I believe the RX-1 engine is closely related in power out put to the 2000
R-1 with carbs 135 - 140 HP

The 2006 R-1 engine is a Short-stroke 998cc DOHC, 20-valve, liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine that produces 183 horsepower (with Ram-Air) at an amazing 12,500 rpm.
Dual-valve fuel injection system uses motor-driven secondary throttle valves and 32-bit ECU for super-responsive, instantaneous power delivery.
