Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders who have moved past a beginner bike and want a light, single-cylinder machine that rewards confident throttle and brake control.
PurposeBest suited to everyday urban riding, twisty backroads, and occasional light green-laning rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe 780mm seat height and slim, lightweight chassis make it accessible to riders of average or shorter stature, with easy low-speed manageability.
CharacterA torquey, easy-to-read single-cylinder supermotard that feels nimble, playful, and forgiving in mixed urban and rural riding conditions.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders chasing high top speed, long motorway touring comfort, or serious two-up passenger accommodation.
