Rider Profile

Best For	This is a high-strung, big-bore enduro cross machine best suited to experienced off-road riders who are comfortable with a tall, light, aggressive dirt bike.
Purpose	Built for competitive cross-country and enduro riding, with sharp handling and serious off-road performance rather than everyday transport.
Rider Fit	The tall 968 mm seat height and light 103.9 kg dry weight demand good rider fitness and leg reach but reward it with easy manhandling over rough terrain.
Character	A raw, high-revving single-cylinder enduro weapon with race-derived suspension and brakes that favors precision and commitment over comfort or convenience.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for new riders, commuters, or anyone wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance road-going or passenger-friendly motorcycle.
