While the front end may look identical to the previous version's, there are plenty of changes. The brake discs are now 5mm thick (up from 4.5mm) for better heat dissipation. A new variant of Dunlop's Qualifier has a thinner sidewall and altered construction from the previous version to improve steering response. The bottom triple clamp grows in height from 35mm to 40mm for more rigidity, the fork springs are slightly stiffer and the damping clickers all have a wider range of adjustment.
