More versatile than ever

To the top with ease

Authentic, easy, simple, and right on the money. In the basic version with the dynamic GS Flyline, sharp lines and an athletic look, we concentrate on the essentials: Your experience.

Light White solid paint

Dynamism meets levity. The standard rider's seat has a two-tone cover in light gray and forms a single entity that runs from the fuel filler cap right through to the passenger seat. The cast wheels in Night Black solid paint round out the contrast-rich aesthetic.

Be unmistakable

The scaled-back design, the unique body, the light aluminum tank – everything works together in an efficient and well-integrated manner. The subframe made from cast aluminum serves as the basis for endless possibilities. Together with the main frame, the standard cast wheels and the powertrain in Avus Black provide a darker border to the lower section, contrasted against the lighter front section of the body. The small, compact front offers an excellent view of the road. There is a clear break from tradition in the design with the new symmetrical light icon – a distinctive face.

Dynamics package

The optional dynamics package allows you to exploit the full potential of the sporty vehicle. Thanks to the shift assistant Pro and the Pro riding modes, every ride can be a highlight in driving dynamics with individual configuration options. The sports brake and the electronic suspension (DSA) serve to ensure optimal handling.

Headlight Pro

The optional Headlight Pro impresses riders with an improved view and a fitting aesthetic. The driving lights, high-beam headlights and cornering light are designed as an LED matrix. They offer modern lighting functions. This allows riders to illuminate the road in a way that best suits the driving situation.

Expanded hand protection

The optional, expanded hand protection provides optimal protection against the wind and weather conditions for your hands and forearms. As such, you will not only enjoy a more comfortable ride, you will also be better protected against disruptive influences.

Luggage plate

Luggage can be lashed to the luggage plate made from impact-resistant plastic. The plate uses the attachment element for the passenger seat and is easy to secure. In combination with the Vario cases, this creates a wide and even load platform. It can carry a payload of 11 lbs, and 44 lbs of luggage can be secured to the sides.
