Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a competition-focused motocross machine best suited to experienced off-road or racing riders, not beginners.
PurposeBuilt purely for motocross track and dirt competition, with no concession to street use or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts ultra-light 103 kg dry weight and tall 380 mm ground clearance demand an active, fit rider comfortable standing and shifting body weight through jumps and berms.
CharacterA raw, high-revving single-cylinder thumper with sharp throttle response and razor-quick handling typical of open-class motocross bikes.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for commuting, touring, carrying a passenger, or riders seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance street bike.
