Build based on the RC 401 presented in 2022, the RC 401 R is an up-spec version of the former and is differentiated by the addition of single-sided swingarm and an adjustable suspension from KYB, J.Juan dual front disc brakes and ABS. 

Also, the RC 401 R is a lot sportier thanks to its lower clip ons and higher rear tail.
