Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a specialist rally-raid machine best suited to experienced offroad riders who already have serious dirt and navigation skills.
PurposeBuilt for long-distance desert rally racing and endurance offroad adventure riding, with its huge 35-litre fuel range and rally navigation tower reflecting a Dakar-style mission.
Rider FitThe tall 960 mm seat height, 139 kg dry weight, and demanding suspension travel mean it rewards a fit, confident rider comfortable standing and manhandling the bike over rough terrain for hours.
CharacterIt has the character of a purebred rally weapon: light, high-clearance, long-travel, and focused entirely on covering rough ground fast and self-sufficiently rather than on refinement or comfort.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for beginners, casual commuters, or anyone wanting a comfortable passenger-friendly road bike.
