　　The engine was coupled to a six-speed manual transmission that delivered the power to the rear end through a final chain drive, launching the motorcycle to a top speed of 122 kph (76 mph).

　　In the suspension department, the motorcycle was fitted with a 35 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front and a dual-sided swingarm coupled to a single shock absorber on the rear, providing optimum suspension performance.

　　As for the visual department, the motorcycle was fitted with standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small front cowl with a small rectangular headlight, small side fairings, a one-piece dual seat, a luggage rack, and wire-spoke wheels.
