The bike does have some improvements. The tripple clamps have been beefed up a bit. The gas tank and plastics are all colour in plastics. The quality of the finish is about the same. I think the cheap switchgear is also similar. They have made some improvements on the bike, but not a whole lot of difference to it.

I forgot how tall the gear ratios were. you are going about 70 kmph in 5th and it will pull up steep inclines in 4th... Not really geared for highway use, but it should be nice in the mountains.

Next on the list are some side bags, some electrical outlets and an HID light.
