"What are the key features that make the Bear 650 unique?" (1 of 2)
* Performance difference (+8% peak torque);
* Retro Scrambler aesthetic
* 2-1 exhaust system
* Full Showa Suspension, including a USD Separate Function, Big Piston Fork
* Braking set up as per revised INT/GT - performance increase thanks to overall stiffness increase in fork and front axle.
* TFT featuring Tripper Navigation (as Himalayan 450 and Guerrilla 450). -

@dHeinemann they've basically made my bike!

@kev Looks great!
I see a new exhaust, shocks, tyres, seat, and mirrors, plus a headlight guard and tank pads. I assume there's a bash plate too... anything else?
How much did all that set you back?

@dHeinemann I also upgraded the fork internals for a YSS set, as well as a new rear light unit and indicators too. There’s other bits too, but can’t think without going round it haha.
I dread to think how much it cost. 2k maybe?
