NEW FEATURES |
|
|
|
|
|
- Updated mid-size
design featuring a sleek new fairing, plus
numerous functional improvements.
- Wider and taller
windscreen provides increased wind protection and
reduced turbulence through a windscreen vent
system.
- New fairing includes
bright, dual projector-type headlamps, new
mirrors and new instruments with step-motor
construction for more precise operation (like
Hayabusa), plus LCD odometer and tripmeter.
- New Keihin CVR31
carburetors are equipped with a throttle position
sensor for more precise ignition timing control,
and a new throttle slide design. The TPS and new
throttle slide shape combine to improve fuel
mileage and increase low rpm power feel and
response.
- Increased charging
system output - from 25 to 40 amp max. output.
- Improved chassis
performance with reduced rake and trail and
increased wheelbase.
- Wider diameter wheels
and new radial tires for precise handling and
comfortable ride.
- Larger diameter front
brake caliper piston for improved stopping power.
- Reduced seat height,
(20mm lower), for increased rider comfort.
- Larger capacity fuel
tank, (1 liter), for increased range.
- Easier-to-operate
centerstand with an improved leverage ratio to
reduce effort.
- One-piece passenger
grab bar is larger and easier to reach.
- Larger storage area
beneath the seat - large enough for a U-lock.
- Bolt-on passenger
footpegs - can be easily replaced if damaged.
