The riding position is now more comfortable with the new footpegs inherited from the Multistrada V4 which, thanks to a 10 mm increase in distance from the seat, ensure the right amount of room also for taller riders, preventing them from bending their legs excessively, and thus allowing a more restful position during long journeys. A taller 850 mm seat can also be optioned.

A new evolution of the Testastretta 11° engine also debuts with new con-rods, eight-disc wet clutch and updated gearbox which is claimed to improve shift quality, particularly on the S thanks to its up-down Quick Shifter.
