Three rider modes , Sport , Road , and Rain , are available at the push of a button . Compared to the ‘ Road ’ setting , ‘ Sport ’ mode unlocks an even more eager throttle response , enabling riders to more readily unleash the performance of the 800cc triple .

Optimised Cornering ABS and traction control bring even greater peace of mind in tricky conditions – so riders can focus on enjoying the ride . This advanced technology calculates the bike ’ s lean angle from a 6-axis inertial measurement unit ( IMU ) and automatically adjusts the level of intervention to deliver the optimum performance and control . For longer journeys , cruise control adds convenience and reduces fatigue .
