The bike comes with 35 mm telescopic front forks with 130 mm travel; and twin gas-charged shock absorber at the rear with 5-step adjustable preload and 80 mm of travel. The bike comes to a halt using a 280 mm front and a 240 mm rear disc, with dual channel ABS.

Regarding service of the bike, Carberry says it can be done with the help of a local mechanic as it shares most of the components with Royal Enfield bikes. The company can also advise the mechanic on techniques and procedures, or it can be returned to them for a factory build (for Indian customers only). Otherwise, Carberry can send out a mechanic to the customer’s place. Customer will have to bear the transportation cost.

The bike competes with the Triumph Street Twin and the Harley Davidson Iron 883 in the segment. The fact that this motorcycle is hand-built sets it apart from the rest.
