System 17 with its great equipment of 6 opposed pistons, parallel and 3-abreast of 15.5 mm diameter - is on top of the whole range for its unmatched power and great modulation; it can smooth the braking so to handle at the best the excellent power. The M/C comes with an oversized reservoir to hold a big quantity of fluid and its transparent material allows the visual check of the fluid level.
