They have also upgraded the rear shock from a WP APEX unit to an XACT unit, beefed up the clutch, improved the traction control / ABS, tweaked the suspension settings and updated the optional quickshifter however the custom Rally riding mode is now optional.
As before the air filter can be found under the seat, making it easily accessible for cleaning. The wire-spoked 21" front wheel takes a Metzeler Karoo 3 90/90 tyre and the rear 18" a 150/70.
Accessories include the Akrapovic Titanium exhaust, Rally mode, quickshifter, cruise control, a variety of luggage options, Carbon fuel tank protectors, hand guard options, heated grips, centre stand, tall screen from the 790 and a variety of billet parts.
