PurposeBuilt for long-distance, mixed-terrain adventure riding where covering rough ground and open highway with equal confidence matters most.
Rider FitIts 880mm seat height, considerable dry weight, and top-heavy fuel load demand good rider height and upper-body strength, particularly at low speed off-road.
CharacterA rugged, torque-rich adventure machine with a raw, mechanical feel that rewards confident throttle input and stand-up riding technique.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for shorter riders, strict city commuters, or anyone seeking a light, low-seat, effortlessly manageable everyday bike.
