Just saw this in Rider Magazine online. Seems the 2015 model has some nice options like;
"the Caponord Rally sports lighter spoked wheels in place of the crossover?s cast items; more specifically, a 3.00 x 19-inch front and 4.50 x 17-inch rear, versus the cast 3.50 x 17 and 6.00 x 17 combo. There?s also a standard skid plate and brush guards, auxiliary LED lights, oversized, manually adjustable windscreen and larger 33-liter hard bags. The tubular-steel frame remains unchanged, but new triple clamps tweak the steering geometry more towards off-road use. A new exhaust system and ECU mapping boost low-end and midrange power while maintaining the claimed peak 125 horsepower from the 1197cc, 90-degree V-twin engine. Like the crossover Caponord, the Caponord Rally also incorporates the full suite of Aprilia electronic rider aids: ride-by-wire, antilock braking, traction control, cruise control, and the real gem of the bunch, Aprilia Dynamic Damping (ADD)?a fully active system that automatically adjusts rear shock spring preload as well as compression and rebound damping in the shock and fork."
Seems like BMW might want to watch out and it seems Honda isn't even trying to stay in the game.
