Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a high-strung, powerful open-class motocross machine best suited to experienced off-road riders who can manage abrupt big-single power delivery.
PurposeBuilt purely for motocross competition, excelling at jumps, aggressive cornering, and hard acceleration out of turns on prepared tracks.
Rider FitThe tall 930mm seat height, minimal weight at 109.6kg, and demanding kick/electric big-bore single require a fit, confident rider comfortable standing and shifting body weight actively.
CharacterA raw, torquey, race-bred motocrosser with sharp handling and explosive big-single character rather than refined smoothness.
Not Ideal ForThis bike is not suitable for commuting, touring, passengers, or riders seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance road-going motorcycle.
