Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders with at least some basic experience, as the light weight and modest power make it forgiving but the tall off-road stance rewards a bit of skill.
PurposeBuilt as a lightweight 1980s enduro-styled allrounder for mixed on- and off-road exploring rather than outright speed.
Rider FitVery light at 127 kg, so it's easy to muscle around, pick up, and manage at low speed or on loose surfaces.
CharacterA nimble, buzzy two-stroke single with an adventurous, go-anywhere personality typical of classic 80s enduro-tourers.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders wanting high-speed highway cruising, plush long-distance comfort, or modern touring range and refinement.
