Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced off-road and adventure riders who are comfortable with a tall, top-heavy big-bore enduro.
PurposeBuilt as a hardcore, high-performance enduro for serious off-road exploration and long-distance dual-sport adventure riding rather than pure pavement speed.
Rider FitThe tall 920 mm seat height and 195 kg wet weight demand strong, confident riders comfortable standing on the pegs and managing weight over rough terrain.
CharacterIt has a rugged, torquey boxer character with a purposeful, rally-inspired presence that rewards deliberate, skilled riding over rough and varied terrain.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for short riders, novices, or anyone wanting a plush commuter or a light nimble city runabout.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
