The new handlebar is straighter and moves the hand position up and in. This relaxed position makes the bike easier to ride and control. The footpegs are positioned close to the bike’s centreline for a slim riding position conducive to both on and off road riding. Narrow tank design gives riders maximum comfort and control without sacrificing capacity.

Lightweight, high-tensile steel for amazing rigidity. No downtubes allow for lower engine placement and lower center of gravity as well as ample ground clearance. Lightweight, aluminum D-section swingarm is highly rigid and reduces unsprung weight. KX™ racing-type chain adjusters allow precise adjustment. Long rear wheel travel for straight-line stability, great handling and a low seat height. Progressive linkage rate provides a smooth ride and excellent bottoming resistance. The gas-charged remote-reservoir shock features 18-way adjustable compression and rebound damping.

All digital instrument console gives at a glance information featuring a digital bar graph tachometer, digital speedometer, clock, and dual trip meters.

Front and rear petal disc brakes offer impressive stopping performance. A twin piston calliper grips a 250 mm disc up front. At the rear, a single piston calliper operates a large 240 mm disc.

Fat, 4mm spokes for greater off-road durability. Light weight alloy rims for a lower weight. Tyres with small tread blocks for longer tyre life and increased grip on the sealed roads.
