The combined braking system with dual front discs and a single rear disc ensures confident stopping power, aided by the anti-lock braking system (ABS) for added safety. With a generous fuel capacity of 21 liters, this machine is ready for long-distance rides, and the adjustable seat height provides a customizable fit for riders of various sizes. **

  • Seat Height: Although adjustable, the seat height of 820 mm (32.3 inches) may be challenging for shorter riders, potentially affecting comfort and confidence.
  • Fuel Efficiency: While the performance is exhilarating, the fuel consumption may not be as economical for long-distance tours compared to more touring-oriented bikes.
