Available in both RR (standard) and Race Edition models. The RRs have oil injection and open chamber forks standard. Race Edition feature closed chamber forks, billet footpegs, and unique graphics. Revised fork lugs allow for stronger, more protective fork guards in 2019, and all bikes get a new rear shock. RRs get new front forks with all adjustments on the top.
