Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with at least some experience on tall, lightweight off-road-biased singles, as the high seat height and punchy big-bore engine can surprise newcomers.
Purpose	Built primarily for enduro and off-road riding, with genuine competition-derived running gear that also allows occasional road use.
Rider Fit	Its tall 920mm seat height and 138kg dry weight demand a rider of reasonable height and fitness, though the light mass makes it manageable once moving.
Character	A raw, torquey big-bore single with race-bred suspension and sharp handling, rewarding an active, engaged riding style over relaxed cruising.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking long-distance comfort, pillion capability, or a low, easy-to-manage everyday commuter.
