Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer riders and those wanting a lightweight, revvy small-bore sportbike to build skills on before moving to bigger machines.
PurposeDesigned as a small-displacement two-stroke sport bike aimed at spirited city riding and light track-day fun rather than outright speed.
Rider FitIts low dry weight and compact dimensions make it easy to manage for shorter or lighter riders and easy to flick around at low effort.
CharacterA high-strung two-stroke single that rewards keeping the revs up near the 11000 RPM power peak, delivering a peppy, buzzy, old-school sportbike feel.
Not Ideal ForNot a good choice for highway touring, carrying a passenger in comfort, or riders wanting strong low-end torque and long-distance stability.
