Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to beginner and early-intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, manageable power, and forgiving single-cylinder delivery.
PurposeDesigned as an affordable commuter-sport hybrid, blending everyday practicality with a sportier riding stance and styling.
Rider FitIts low 154 kg weight and low seat height make it easy to handle for riders of most sizes and shorter inseams.
CharacterA humble, air-cooled single that favors light, nimble handling and simplicity over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking highway-speed touring comfort, off-road capability, or genuine sportbike performance.
