The motorcycle body uses a long steel plate press backbone frame that gives an impression of Dax, a long type double seat that is easy for two people, and a grab bar that is easy to grip for passengers. A fuel tank and an air cleaner are installed in the frame under the seat, and the simple configuration around the engine realizes a compact and unique styling that emphasizes the T-shaped frame shape. In addition, chrome-plated parts are placed everywhere, such as the muffler guard attached to the up-type muffler and the cover on the left side of the car body, adding a high-quality feel to the lovely appearance. For the suspension, a 12-inch size tubeless tire is combined with a highly rigid cast wheel with a simple design, and an inverted front fork and front and rear wheel disc brakes are adopted. In addition, ABS that acts on the front wheels is standard equipment to enhance the sense of security when braking. The lighting equipment uses round LED headlights and turn signals that enhance the adorable impression.

*ABS is a system that assists the rider's braking operation. As with vehicles that are not equipped with ABS, sufficient deceleration is required in front of corners, etc., and it is not possible to handle unreasonable driving. When ABS is activated, the system is activated by kickback (swing back).
