　　The bike's engine was tied to a six-speed manual gearbox with a wet multi-plate clutch, linked to the rear wheel via a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 214 kph (133 mph).

　　For suspension, the bike packed a 50 mm Marzocchi fork with 175 mm of travel on the front and an adjustable Sachs shock absorber with 185 mm travel on the rear, providing optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

　　As for the braking power, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 300 mm brake discs with two-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 270 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper mounted on the rear wheel.
