  Push-rod valve actuation contributes to lower engine height, low center of gravity and relatively low seat height
  Hydraulic valve adjusters reduce maintenance
  Engine Control Unit (ECU) manages electronic fuel injection and digital ignition system optimize throttle response
  Fuel injection system features sub throttle valves for a smooth, linear power band
  Fuel injection system’s fine atomizing injectors deliver ultra-fine fuel/air mixture for greater combustion efficiency, increased power and optimum fuel economy
  Center spark plugs enhance combustion for smooth, consistent power and reduced emissions
  Liquid and air cooling maintain consistent operating temperatures
  Engine and transmission feature built-in oil and water pumps, reducing the number of parts and reducing weight
  Single-pin crank contributes to a classic V-twin sound
 Transmission / Final Drive
  A gear position sensor in the five-speed transmission sends signals to the ECU, further enhancing fuel injection and ignition performance
  Belt final drive is smooth, quiet, reliable and low maintenance

  Steel double-cradle frame features large diameter, box
  section single-tube backbone for strength
  Engine is utilized as a stressed member of the frame to minimize chassis weight
