• New exhaust adapted routing, adapted resonance chamber
• Engine overall weight reduction (26.8kg)
• Added service plug for easier maintanance
• Longitudinal size reduction
• Intake port optimization (higher flow values)
• Valve lift and opening time increased
• New lightweight valve cover → only 2 mounting screws
• Only one oil jet for lubrication
• New fine punched cam chain adding durability
• Lock and TDC marking on camshaft
• Compression ratio increased from 12.8:1 (MY22) to 13.1:1

• Anodized compression ring groove
• Complete new crankcase
• New arrangement and position of the crankshaft and transmission shafts
• Crankshaft position is 12mm closer to the center of gravity
• Swing arm axle 3mm closer to the output shaft
• TDC and Lock markings
• Redesigned shift shaft → reduced operating force

• DDS clutch → lightweight with consistent modulation and exceptional durability
• Oil pump geometry changed to milling operation
• Oil pressure increased (especially at low rpms)
• New frame design whilst keeping the frame geometry (rider triangle)
• New shock mounting position results in decoupling shock mount from the main chest tube and by this less interference with the steering head is created
