With front rebound and compression adjustability and rear preload and rebound flexibility, you may tailor the bike to your specific demands. At the back, you may adjust the rebound by 20 clicks and the preload by 10 stages.

A quick-shifter, traction control, cornering and off-road ABS, and riding modes are among the rider aids available. The major new addition to this variant is a new Rally Orange colour.
