The bike is based on the popular naked Duke 790 but with all the necessary modifications needed for an adventure bike, however it's 20 kg heavier and the quickshifter is optional.

The wire-spoked 21" front wheel takes an Avon TrailRider 90/90 tyre and the rear 18" a 150/70.

Accessories include the Akrapovic Titanium exhaust (£875), quickshifter (£350), cruise control (£218), a variety of luggage options, Carbon fuel tank protectors (£306), hand guard options, heated grips, low screen from the R, low 800 mm seat and a variety of billet parts.

Colours: Orange/black, white/black
