Key elements include a signature front beak, muscular fuel tank, prominent radiator shrouds, and a rugged overall stance. Ergonomics appear to be geared toward long-distance comfort, with upright handlebars and neutral footpeg positioning.On the technology front, the motorcycle is likely to be equipped with a full-colour TFT display offering smartphone connectivity and navigation support. Full-LED lighting, adjustable levers, and modern switchgear are also expected.
