Other riding conveniences include TFT-LCD instrument panel with Bluetooth connectivity to the rider’s smartphone, USB charging port under the seat and smart key system. Full LED lighting is used throughout including the LED courtesy light in under seat storage compartment that is large enough to hold a single helmet.
