The power source is a 500cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled unit that churns out 47.5PS at 8,500rpm and 45Nm of torque at 5,000rpm, and is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.

The tail lamp is an all-LED unit and the tail section is not equipped with a conventional grab handle
The seat is a single-piece unit with the rider height at 785mm
The adjustable rear monoshock has been mounted off-set on the swingarm

The tank gets extra padding in the fuel tank which could help the rider grab the tank better
