The bike weighs a hefty 227kg despite being very nearly, completely naked. It features a five-speed gearbox, is chain driven and offers a TIG welded chassis that plays host to a number of carbon fibre and billet aluminium components.
Other features include fully adjustable WP forks, Beringer brakes, BST carbon fibre wheels and a 13.5-litre fuel tank.
