Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate or experienced riders who are comfortable with a light, tall, and responsive machine that reacts quickly to inputs.
PurposeBuilt for supermoto-style riding, mixing sharp tarmac cornering with occasional light off-road capability rather than serious touring or racing outright top speed.
Rider FitThe tall 900mm seat height and minimal dry weight around 109kg favor taller or more confident riders who can manage a top-heavy stance at a stop.
CharacterA playful, flickable single-cylinder machine that rewards aggressive throttle and brake inputs with lively, direct feedback through corners.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking long-distance comfort, passenger carrying capability, or a plush, relaxed ride.
