NEW 4T ENGINE
Modern, reliable 4T engine: available in 400, 450 and 520 cc versions, for greater versatility of use.
- Compact size and limited weight (31.4 kg) to increase
handling.
- High levels of performance aimed at ensuring maximum
usability and traction for the rider.
- Engine casing and engine covers (magnesium) with
variable thicknesses for greater stiffness and resistance
to stress.
- Components such as motor shaft and gear change made
of special steel of aeronautical origin: 30% more resistant
compared to traditional steels.
- 4 valves, double cam shaft and finger followers with
DLC-treatment (the same technology used in F1 and the MotoGP.
- Double counterweight countershaft to eliminate
detrimental vibrations.
- Tight valve angle and combustion chamber with optimised
geometrics: excellent power output combined with a high
standard of engine control at various speeds.
- Separate oil circuits: one for cylinder/crankshaft and one
for gearbox/clutch to eliminate contamination with gear
change/clutch residues. Possible to use oils with different
specifications.
NEW CHASSIS
- More rigid, lightweight frame.
- Total overhaul of the dimensions and cross section of
tubes, to improve feeling, handling and stability.
- Widespread use of chrome-molybdenum to increase
mechanical resistance.
- Brand-new Marzocchi Shiver ø 45 mm fork with
compression/extension pistons of different diameters
to increase absorption of bumps in rough terrain.
- Improved fork smoothness and less initial friction.
- Greater fork progressivity and lining rigidity to
increase directional stability.
- More rigid swingarm to improve the effectiveness
of the rear suspension.
- New progressive rear suspension system: improves
raction and progressivity (+15%).
- New shock absorber with increased axle base and new
spring. Dissipates heat better and ensures more stable
performance levels over time.
- New hydraulic calibration for the suspension to work
in harmony with the new swingarm and progressive system.
- Innovative rear frame made of special plastic (filled
polyamide) material to reduce the weight and improve
functionality and mechanical accessibility.
- New plastics design: more aggressive, modern style
together with better ergonomics for the rider.
- New seat with a more linear shape and profile to allow
easier moving and riding comfort.
