Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a serious enduro weapon best suited to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a peaky two-stroke and tall, minimal seat.
PurposeBuilt for competitive and technical off-road enduro riding, including trails, woods, and rough terrain rather than road use.
Rider FitThe extremely light dry weight and tall 985mm seat height demand good rider fitness and confidence standing on the pegs, though the low mass makes it easier to muscle around than heavier bikes.
CharacterA raw, high-strung two-stroke enduro machine that rewards aggressive, active riding with explosive light-weight agility and top-tier suspension travel.
Not Ideal ForThis is not suited to riders wanting a comfortable daily commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long-distance road touring.
