Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a demanding enduro machine best suited to intermediate-to-advanced off-road riders who are comfortable with a tall, lightweight, high-strung dirt bike.
PurposeBuilt as an enduro/cross-country competition weapon, it excels at tight trails, technical terrain, and off-road racing rather than road use.
Rider FitThe tall 963 mm seat height and firm long-travel suspension demand good rider fitness, leg length, and off-road bike handling skills.
CharacterExpect a light, agile, high-revving single-cylinder machine that rewards aggressive standing-up riding and precise throttle control over technical obstacles.
Not Ideal ForThis is not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a highway touring machine.
