Power is transmitted from the engine to the rear wheel through a multi-speed constant mesh transmission and a shaft drive system. The transmission allows the rider to select different gear ratios to match engine speed and road conditions, while the shaft drive provides a smooth and low-maintenance power delivery.

4.3 Fren Sistemi

The motorcycle features hydraulic disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels. When the brake lever or pedal is applied, hydraulic pressure is generated, forcing brake pads against the rotating discs to slow or stop the motorcycle. Regular inspection and maintenance of the braking system are vital for safety.
