New for the F5 this year is a wider swaybar mount point for better handling and a more solid feel through the bumps. A new 128-inch skidframe — up from 121 inches last season — has lighter, machined rails with a fresh look. The 500 laydown Suzuki engine pulls fuel through dual, 38mm throttle bodies and makes about 80 hp. The F5 is available in orange, black or green.
