With its iconic trellis frame, striking aesthetics, and robust performance, this motorcycle is not just a means of transportation but a statement of individuality and passion for the open road.

This powerplant delivers a thrilling ride that is both responsive and exhilarating, ensuring that riders feel the rush whether navigating through city streets or carving up winding roads.

The lightweight tubular chrome moly steel trellis frame and cast aluminum subframe contribute to a nimble yet stable ride, enhancing cornering confidence. With a rake of 24° and a trail of 87 mm, this motorcycle handles with grace and agility, while the 43mm upside-down forks and double-sided swingarm provide a balanced suspension setup with 120 mm of front travel and 148 mm at the rear. Safety features like ABS on both the front and rear brakes ensure that stopping power is as reliable as the acceleration, providing peace of mind on every ride. **
