- Dual 310 mm discs up front with Nissin two piston calipers
- 220 mm disc at the rear with Nissin two piston caliper

The 17" wire spoked wheels take a Pirelli Angel GT 120/70 tyre at the front and a 160/60 at the rear.
Accessories include heated grips (£189), cruise control, mini cafe racer fly screen (£72), full cafe racer fairing (£680), Vance & Hines performance exhaust kit, Ohlins shocks (£940), lower clip-on bars, pillion seat hump cover (£143), panniers, comfort seat and bullet indicators.
