The riding position has been rotated forward and down slightly, with the seat 5mm forward and the clip-ons 5mm forward and 5mm lower than previously to put more weight on the front end. The outer fork tubes are stiffer and 10mm longer to allow for a greater range of ride-height adjustments; likewise, the rear end can be dropped 7mm farther than before to accommodate large-diameter race tires. The gauge package is unchanged for 2008 aside from the background color.
