The bobber offering features an all-LED illumination system — with the front lamps fitted in a custom, neo-modern nacelle. Its lights are all rounded in shape, which resembles to the auxiliaries that custom builders usually fit in their motorcycles.

Upping the motorcycle’s retro look are the gloss aluminum switchgears with adjustable levers.

The said mill, which also found on its middleweight cruiser counterpart, allows the bobber to do 22 kilometers per liter and give as much as 34 horsepower.
Its stopping power comes from the disc brakes with dual-channel anti brakelock system.
