Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate to experienced riders comfortable with a tall, top-heavy single-cylinder supermoto that demands active riding.
PurposeBuilt for sharp, flickable handling on twisty tarmac and light backroad duty rather than outright top-end speed or long-distance cruising.
Rider FitThe 900mm seat height and lean, narrow chassis favor taller riders, though the light dry weight keeps low-speed maneuvering manageable.
CharacterA punchy, characterful big-bore single with supermoto attitude, rewarding aggressive throttle and brake inputs with agile, playful handling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting a smooth, comfortable, or fast highway tourer with strong wind protection and a plush ride.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
