Modern electronics including connectivity and LED Cornering lights

Comfortable, long-distance ergonomics, ideal for taller riders

Electronically adjustable windscreen - flexible for different speeds

Great handling despite the higher weight

High weight noticeable in tight hairpins and when manoeuvring

rear brake with long idle travel, particularly noticeable in tight bends
