In addition to its standard features and front bullet cowl, the 2016 Stryker had its appearance complemented by black-finished elements, such as the engine with polished cooling fins, frame, lower fork legs, wheels, and exhaust system.

The bike was built on the same double cradle steel frame with a 41 mm telescopic fork and a 310 mm brake disc on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear with a 310 mm brake disc on the rear, offering optimum suspension performance, handling, and stopping power.
