The 1995 916 continued the original Tamburini design with the 114 hp injected four-valve desmo twin. A 1994 road test by Alan Cathcart called it the best street bike he had ridden, stressing its compactness, stability at speed and ride quality. Little was mechanically different from the first-year bikes.
