The 20-spoke 17" wheels take a 120/70 Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 tyre at the front and a 160/60 at the rear.

Accessories include the Akrapovic Titanium exhaust system (£1,816), -20 mm low seat (£287), underseat USB Type-A socket, radiator guard, LCD dash cover, front axle sliders and a selection of pillion handgrips.
