Visually, the bike remains largely the same but gets revised internals for the LED headlamp, and the exhaust has been replaced with the double barrel unit that also makes for a throaty more with heavy bass.

The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
