Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a full-blown competition motocross bike best suited to intermediate through expert riders who already know how to manage a high-strung, clutchless-feeling powerband.
PurposeBuilt purely for closed-course motocross racing and hard off-road riding, not for street use or commuting.
Rider FitTall seat height, minimal weight, and stiff long-travel suspension demand good rider fitness, leg strength, and confidence standing on the pegs.
CharacterA light, razor-sharp, high-revving machine that rewards aggressive, committed riding with explosive acceleration out of corners and effortless direction changes.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for new riders, daily commuting, passengers, or anyone wanting a comfortable, road-legal or long-distance touring machine.
