Part of the kit is five riding modes - Standard, Sport, Rain, User, and Gravel, all selected via a left-hand switch cube.

Other key inclusions are - a full-colour TFT display, wheelie control, four-level engine control, three-level Engine Brake, five-level Honda Selectable Torque Control, and two-level ABS.
