Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to intermediate or experienced riders who are comfortable with a tall, lightweight, torquey single-cylinder machine.
Purpose	Built primarily for serious off-road enduro riding with enough road manners to get to and from the trailhead.
Rider Fit	The tall 940mm seat height and firm big-single character demand a reasonably fit rider with good leg length and stamina for standing on the pegs.
Character	A raw, punchy, no-frills enduro bike that rewards active riding and thrives on technical, rough terrain.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking plush comfort, high-speed touring capability, or a low, easy-reach seat height.
