Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders from intermediate skill level up, since the tall seat height and dual-sport nature reward some prior off-road or standing-ride experience.
PurposeBuilt as a dual-sport machine, at home tackling trails and rough backroads with occasional pavement commuting between them.
Rider FitThe tall 920mm seat height and light, single-cylinder dirt-bike-style chassis favor taller or more confident riders comfortable flat-footing at a stop.
CharacterA nimble, torquey thumper that feels playful and eager over rough terrain, with light steering and generous suspension travel for absorbing bumps.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders wanting sustained highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, or a smooth two-up passenger experience.
