The SF is the street-oriented member of the 961 family in MKII form, pairing the 80 hp air-cooled pushrod twin with fully adjustable Öhlins suspension and Brembo brakes. The frame doubles as the dry-sump oil reservoir. Options such as chassis finish packs and carbon wheels were offered by the factory.
