Gearbox: 6-Speed Manual
The 6th gear is a dedicated "overdrive" for the highway. It allows the engine to sit at lower RPMs while maintaining high speeds, reducing vibrations and improving fuel economy during long rides.
Clutch: Assist & Slipper Clutch
This specialized clutch serves two purposes: the "Assist" function makes the lever pull incredibly light, while the "Slipper" function prevents the rear wheel from locking up during aggressive downshifts, a vital safety feature for mountain riding.
