Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with some two-wheel experience who want a light, nimble minimoto-style supermoto rather than a beginner-friendly commuter or a novice's first bike.
PurposeDesigned as a small-displacement supermoto for sharp handling, playful cornering, and mini-bike style thrills on tight tarmac circuits or urban backstreets rather than outright speed.
Rider FitIts low dry weight of around 99 kg and tall-ish 910 mm seat height favor shorter, lighter riders comfortable balancing an agile, flickable chassis rather than a bulky, planted machine.
CharacterA quirky, minimoto-inspired supermoto with a Yamaha-Minarelli single, built for flickable fun and mini-track antics rather than long-distance or high-speed riding.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking highway touring capability, passenger comfort, or serious off-road adventure duty.
