Rider Profile
| Best For | Approachable for newer riders yet fun for veterans; manageable 73hp, low seat and light weight make it a friendly step-up bike. |
| Purpose | A stylish urban roadster for city commuting, spirited back-road blasts and casual weekend rides, with light unpaved-road ability. |
| Rider Fit | Upright, roomy neutral ergonomics, low 798mm seat, slim 196kg wet weight and flat bars; spoked wheels and MT60 tires give a rugged stance. |
| Character | Cool, minimalist retro-scrambler with a punchy air-cooled L-twin, blacked-out styling and a playful, easygoing personality. |
| Not Ideal For | Not for serious off-roaders, long-haul tourers wanting wind protection and luggage, or track riders chasing outright pace. |
