It was. I had one...ordered shortly after they were introduced in Spring
'64; took delivery June 19, 1964 - the day before my first wedding. :-)

The 289 was not initially an option IIRC.

Also had a 289 cu in option, which was much better than the 260. Paired
with a 4-speed it made a nice combination.

When your car and your motorcycle both have roughly the same
horsepower, getting on the bike for the first time in several months
makes for a profound demonstration of the concept of
"power-to-weight

Considering that you drive a Prius, had you not specifically said
"motorcycle", I wouldn't have known which bike you were talking
about.
:-O
Funny thing is, I was recently looking through some car stuff on the
web and came across specs on the original Ford Mustang - the base V-6
was rated at 105 horsepower, which is 5 *less* that the Prius (and my
Triumph Sprint) and had a top speed of 95 mph, which is 10 mph slower
than Al Gore's son got busted for doing in his Prius ;-) Of course,
the top speed of the Triumph is around 160...
Bwahahahaha!
"The point is, ladies and gentleman, is that speed -- for lack of a
better word -- is good. Speed is right. Speed works. Speed clarifies,
cuts through and captures the essence of the competitive spirit.
Speed, in all of its forms -- lap times on road courses, quarter-mile
times on drag strips, flat-out runs on the salt flats -- has marked
the upward surge of mankind."
