Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an experienced rider comfortable with a light, high-revving single-cylinder machine that demands active input.
PurposeBuilt for supermotard thrills, it excels at flickable cornering, tight city sprints, and track-day style riding rather than long distance travel.
Rider FitIts tall 914mm seat height and minimal wind protection favor taller, fitter riders who don't mind a firm, sporty riding position.
CharacterExpect a raw, aggressive, and playful character with sharp handling, strong midrange punch, and little tolerance for lazy inputs.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for beginners, passengers, long highway touring, or anyone seeking plush comfort and low maintenance.
