The bike features single-sided swing arm with cardan drive and a light tubular space frame. It has a typical low front end and high rear one, which enables the rider to control it easier. Concept Roadster comes with LED front and rear lights as well as a fuel tank of gloss milled aluminum. The self-supporting rear structure is fashioned from a single piece. Last, but not least is the integrated single seat upholstered in Alcantara.
More of the styling features include lateral air intakes made from gloss aluminum as well as valve covers. The engine spoiler has an aerodynamic function and integrates the entire front silencer.
