Best For	This is a purebred enduro machine best suited to experienced off-road riders who are comfortable with a tall, light, aggressive competition bike.
Purpose	Built for enduro racing and technical off-road trails, not for street commuting or highway travel.

Character	A featherweight, high-revving single-cylinder racer that rewards precise inputs with exceptional agility and off-road capability.
Not Ideal For	This is not the bike for riders wanting a comfortable, long-distance tourer or a relaxed daily commuter.
