Furthermore, the bike is equipped with a ‘Traction Control System’, a dedicated electronic system that reduces the chances of wheelspin. Similarly, ‘The Quick Shifter’ allows for a clutchless shift of gears enabling comfort by eliminating the need to use the clutch or throttle before and after a gearshift.
