The rear wheel is guided by a light metal twin-arm swing arm with upper cables. A USD fork is used at the front. The final drive takes place via a conventional chain. A regenerative braking system should recover energy. The pilot has three driving modes (Insane, Sport and Eco) to choose from. Of course, the F77 can also be fully networked. The digital TFT cockpit also has a USB socket.

The lithium-ion battery pack, which consists of three modules, has a capacity of 4.2 kWh and should enable a range of 130 to 150 kilometers. The charging time varies between 1.5 and 5 hours depending on the charging current. One brake disc per wheel is used for deceleration. At the front, the Indians rely on a 320 disc and four-piston pliers, and at the rear on a 230 disc and single-piston bend. The 17-inch rims are fitted with 110/70 tires at the front and 150/60 at the rear.
