Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a supermoto built for confident, skilled riders who enjoy an aggressive, lightweight machine with sharp reflexes rather than beginner-friendly forgiveness.
PurposeDesigned primarily for supermoto-style riding and spirited cornering on tight, twisty tarmac, with the underlying enduro chassis giving it some light off-road capability.
Rider FitThe tall 920mm seat height and minimal, narrow bodywork demand decent leg length and comfort with a compact, upright, dirt-bike-like riding position.
CharacterA rowdy, flickable single-cylinder machine that thrives on quick direction changes, hard braking, and playful throttle-happy handling rather than outright top speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not a good fit for riders seeking long-distance comfort, passenger touring, or a plush, relaxed commuting experience.
