The razor-sharp handling and otherworldly track performance come from precise engineering of its underpinnings. The chassis has immense structural rigidity and is sprung by potent 41mm preload-adjustable USD telescopic front forks and mono-shock rear suspension. Dropping anchor on this torque monster is a 4-pot calliper at the front from Bybre.
