Character	It rewards an aggressive, athletic riding style with sharp throttle response and eager handling in tight, technical off-road sections.
Not Ideal For	This is not a good fit for riders seeking a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a machine intended for extended paved highway touring.
