Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a serious offroad enduro tool best suited to experienced or competition-oriented riders comfortable with tall, light, aggressive dirt bikes.
PurposeBuilt for enduro racing and technical offroad riding rather than road use, with long-travel suspension and a high-performance liquid-cooled single.
Rider FitThe tall 963mm seat height, low 110kg dry weight, and firm suspension favor taller, fit riders who can manage a top-heavy stance at low speed and stand aggressively on the pegs.
CharacterSharp, light, and eager to change direction, this bike rewards an active riding style over rough, unpredictable terrain rather than relaxed cruising.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, passengers, highway commuting, or anyone wanting plush comfort and long-range touring range.
