This motorcycles is an athlete. Aerodynamic, avant-garde. with a throaty sound from a cool, hexagonal tube, 140 Nm from 1,293 cc – and at 8,250 rpm too. And in terms of safety features, this machine is unique: ABS as standard with ASC and ESA optional. And the extras are amazing: race through the gears with the automatic shift function, pure racing in view with the 2D dashboard. The fuel consumption would be the envy of many bikes with less power.
