It has an easy start. Instead of holding down the start button, yes press it once and it does the rest for you. The brake light flashes under hard braking. Previously only on the European model. I was told the key didn't have a chip. The handlebar is definitely higher and more back, easier on my wrist. The top of the gas tank has a plastic piece, so I can't use my magnetic bag. Has a hill brake so it doesn't roll back on steep inclines. Instant fuel consumption meter for MPG. Has a diagnosis display for the failure of multiple systems. Of course, a wonderful electronic control array that I think is better than the BMW 1000rr system. I didn't see anything about the break-in procedure. Love the LED running lights, so bright and has a nice angle to them. I was able to put my feet down on the floor so it may be a little shorter in height, not sure. Could have been my shoes. Anyone, please add to the list! I'm sure there's more.
