Maybe its because you search on the 'interweb' and not the 'Internet'...

Properly jetted, 38 hp and 35ft/lb.

It's still air / oil cooled and about 10 years older design than the Rotax mill.

+1

Old school 'farm style' engine and more 'racing oriented newer design. Apples and oranges...

You'll still ride circles around an X-Country

BTW: There are two mistakes in the motorcyclespecs listing:
The rear brake is a single piston caliper and the tank is 13l.

Very similar to a DRZ400...

And the Djebel 250 XC clock in at 30 hp (22 kW)/ 8,500 rpm, 27 Nm (2,8 kg-m)/ 7,000 rpm.  I say old chap, that is not bad for a 250 then ?

Manufacturers like to brag about bike specs, I do not believe a stock Djebel will be close to 30 hp, closer to 25 if you are lucky. LGF had his DRZ on a dyno and got 32. I owned two DR 250's, they are not close to a DRZ but they are quite lively for a 250 air oil cooled motor.
