Rider Profile

Best ForSuitable for newer or returning riders thanks to its modest mid-size power output and manageable chassis.
PurposeDesigned as a versatile scrambler-styled allrounder for mixed commuting, light gravel trails, and weekend rides rather than outright speed or serious off-roading.
Rider FitThe 820 mm seat height and moderate 195 kg wet weight make it accessible to riders of average height and build without being intimidating.
CharacterA relaxed, easygoing middleweight with retro scrambler styling, adjustable KYB suspension for decent compliance, and enough torque low down for effortless everyday riding.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders chasing high-speed thrills, aggressive track cornering, or serious technical off-road adventure touring.
