same as in the existing colour options - INR 1,07,027*. The Volcanic Red paint features a
matte finish along with highlights of black and orange colour. The black and
orange highlights are visible on the front fender, either side of the fairing,
engine cowl and the rear panel. The wheels, too, have rim stripes. The changes
are limited to visual upgrades. Apart from the Volcanic Red colour option, the
palette continues to feature Black Blue and Black Red paint themes.

forks at the front and five-step adjustable, Nitrox suspension at the back.
