Going beyond just ride comfort or handling performance, a new standard of "Driving Comfort"
aims for comfort in ride but also in the peace of mind generated by handling performance and drivability .
An uncompromising balance which delivers on all the demands of street driving.

  • The appropriate lowdown enhances the futuristic styling and creates a more stylish look.
  • In pursuit of ride comfort and a moderately firm driving feel. A dial adjustment accommodates from high-paced grand touring to leisurely travel.
  • The unique front suspension with a movable lower arm. It adopts a pillow upper mount that can absorb vibrations to pursue smooth motion.
  • The rear upper mount is also specially designed and included to ensure ease of installation and ride quality. The damping force adjustment is located above the damper and can be adjusted by slightly jacking up the damper.
