The suspension system features a Marzocchi Shiver hydraulic front setup with compression damping adjustment and a Works Performance hydraulic rear, providing exceptional handling and comfort on various terrains. Stopping power is delivered through single disc brakes from Bremo, ensuring that officers can make quick stops when necessary. Additional features include a user-friendly electric starter and an impressive battery capacity of 6.0 kWh, which allows for a recharge time of approximately 8 hours, ensuring that the motorcycle is ready for duty after a night’s rest. **
