If you are on the market for a middle-weight naked, capable of tackling both the busy traffic of the urban jungle, as well as longer, weekend strolls in the mountains or across the countryside. It has, at its heart, an air-cooled, four-stroke, 797cc, boxer twin cylinder powerplant paired to a five-speed manual transmission that can reach a maximum power output of 50 horsepower and 61 Nm of torque.
In addition, it comes with a front disc brake coupled to a rear drum, die-cast aluminium wheels, a dual seat, passenger grab rails, a dual exhaust system, a large-capacity 24-liter (6.3-gallon) fuel tank, engine guards, a small windscreen, an analogue instrument cluster and a suspension package composed of a telescopic front fork and a BMW Motorrad Paralever unit in the rear.
