Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a serious enduro/motocross machine best suited to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a tall, light, aggressive dirt bike.
PurposeBuilt for competitive cross-country and motocross use, excelling on rough, technical off-road terrain rather than pavement.
Rider FitThe tall 930mm seat height and minimal weight bias mean shorter or less experienced riders may find it physically demanding to manage at low speed.
CharacterA raw, high-strung big-bore single with a liquid-cooled 4-stroke engine delivering punchy, torquey power in an extremely light, race-focused chassis.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long-distance road touring capability.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
