Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a serious enduro machine best suited to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a tall, light, powerful single-cylinder bike.
PurposeBuilt purely for technical off-road riding, trail work, and enduro competition rather than street use or commuting.
Rider FitThe tall 970mm seat height, firm suspension, and physical demands of a big-bore off-road single mean shorter or less fit riders may struggle.
CharacterLight, responsive, and torquey, with premium WP suspension giving it a nimble, race-bred feel over rough terrain.
Not Ideal ForNot suited to riders wanting a comfortable road bike, a passenger-friendly setup, or long-distance touring capability.
