from 0km/h to 50 km/h : 13,466 12,548
top speed (km/h) : 226,4 a 10.300 giri 243,6 a 10.550 giri
weight (kg) : 199,2 kg 201.6 kg
wheel max power : 94,41 cv a 10.000 giri 124,34 cv a 11.500 giri
wheel max torque: 7,38 kgm a 8.000 giri 8,67 kgm a 9.250 giri

Here are some FZ8 test results from various motorcycle magazines in 2010 and 2011:
HP ET (sec) @ ES (mph) TS (mph) Source / Issue (UK/US)
96.3 12.47 @ 117.4 141.9 Bike / Aug, 2010 (UK)
93 11.93 @ 115.87 141 FastBikes / Sep, 2010 (UK)
95.87 12.05 @ 117.38 141.89 Performance Bikes / Nov, 2010 (UK)
96.38 11.72 @ 121.02 145.65 Motorcycle News (MCN) / May, 2011 (UK)
91.6 11.31 @ 119.7 140 Cycle World / May, 2011 (US)
89.47 11.55 @ 115.71 137.4 Motorcycle Consumer News / May 2011 (US)
91.4 11.23 @ 121.00 n.a. Sport Rider / Oct, 2011 (US)
Interestingly the UK bikes appear to have slightly more horsepower than the US ones, but the US models are clearly quicker in the quarter mile.
