The 10-spoke 17" wheels take a 120/70 Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tyre at the front and 180/60 at the rear.

Accessories include the 745 mm low seat (£173), 830 mm high seat (£206), Carbon fibre silencers (£1,050), billet frame plugs (£154), billet mirrors (£269), smoked screen (£242), LED indicators (£69), 25 litre panniers (£883), rear wheel licence plate mount (£408) and a range of Carbon bits.
