Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an experienced off-road rider comfortable with a light, torquey, kick-in-the-pants single-cylinder enduro machine.
PurposeBuilt as a lightweight big-bore enduro for trail riding, motocross-style tracks, and rough terrain rather than road use.
Rider FitIts low 135 kg weight and tall suspension favor an agile, fit rider who can stand on the pegs and manage an unforgiving, minimal-comfort seat.
CharacterIt has the raw, punchy character of a classic air-cooled big-bore single, rewarding aggressive, hands-on riding over smooth cruising.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for a rider seeking touring comfort, a passenger, or sustained high-speed road cruising.
