Regardless of outside air temperature or altitude, fuel injection maintains a constant fuel supply. It also allows the use of an electronic starter which allows starting with the touch of a button whether its engine is hot or cold and helps to clear the exhaust. The fuel injection system has a 32 mm throttle body for accurate response.

Chassis

The brand new high tensile steel frame, designed from the ground up for mud riding, provides the best handling needed for a pleasant trail ride for a variety of riders. By combining the engine and the frame, the engineers achieved low engine height maximum chassis balance, and low center of gravity in a small chassis. Motorcycle mobility is enhanced by its short 53.5 “wheelbase and high 11.8” ground clearance, which allows riders to communicate more easily on the ground.

At the front, a large, 37 mm diameter telescopic fork handles the suspension function. With a 9.8 “travel suspension, the rider has better control over different areas.

Wheels & Brakes

Full-size aluminum wheels, measuring 21 inches at the front and 18 inches at the rear, help riders navigate the terrain, significantly improving trail riding performance.
