Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a purebred 2-stroke enduro best suited to riders who already have off-road experience, as its light weight and punchy power delivery reward skill more than they forgive mistakes.
PurposeBuilt for trail riding, enduro competition, and technical off-road terrain rather than street use or long-distance travel.
Rider FitIts very light 105 kg mass makes it easy to muscle around obstacles, but the firm suspension, tall seat height typical of the class, and active riding style demand decent fitness and stamina.
CharacterA raw, high-strung 2-stroke single that rewards an aggressive, momentum-driven riding style with sharp handling and immediate throttle response.
Not Ideal ForNot suited to riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a machine for relaxed highway touring.
