Lowered front and rear suspension and a reshaped seat lower the center of gravity and reduce seat height to 28.6 inches for enhanced rider confidence at stops and low speeds. Power comes from the same rockin' Thunderstorm 1203 V-Twin with Buell InterActive Exhaust. The handling from the same rigid chassis and nimble 52-inch wheelbase.
