The front suspension, with its telescopic design and hydraulic damping, offers 130 mm of travel for a smooth ride, while the swingarm rear suspension with gas shock absorbers delivers 80 mm of travel to soak up bumps effectively. Braking performance is handled by a 280 mm front disc and a 240 mm rear disc, ensuring that stopping power is as reliable as the bike’s vintage aesthetic.
