Rumor on German forum is new suspension in collab with a 3rd party performance suspension maker, this is certainly a welcome addition as the low end Chinese one which comes stock standard leaves much to imagination. ⚠️ Last edited by babola on UTC; edited 2 times

Couple of fresh photos. Mainly cosmetic changes it appears. These are Super Sport 300 HPE and likely a new Racing Sixties ? (red one on the right) models.
Or it could be a new GTS Super and a Super Sport. We'll know in the next few days I believe. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Looks like we will retain the 300 as the pic of the black one reveals on the glove box, but who knows if these are early production runs or just shop toys... they sure are sharp looking though, the black on the red is really nice! I wonder if those are 13" wheels. The key FOB found on the seat.. the turn signals are very silver, hope they illuminate nicer than they look off. overall they look nice!

Unless they change the top speed, all of this is just making me more confident I'll be keeping my 2020.

I also prefer the look of my tail light and the fact the license plate sits higher on mine. On the new modell it's abour 3 inches lower, below that weird looking 'nipple' sticking out above it. No wheelies anymore, guys...we are likely to end up with a licence plate on the tarmac if we try that |

IMHO, the shiny chrome around the controls and on the leg shield trim (a la the sprint) cheapens the look, sigh. Change is hard to accept, ha!

some differences to the transmission housing vs my 2019 supertech Asia/Pacific E3. Obviously the highlighted differences don't matter but you have to wonder why? Are the internals different?
Makes me wonder about a 2022 E5 ... anyone got a good photo of that? PS I still havent installed the Frandos that are sitting here looking at me with a "come on ya lazy bastard" expression ![]() |

I agree. That taillight is a bit too much. I prefer the earlier GTS300 taillight without the chrome surround. It followed the body lines nicely.
