Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders with at least some intermediate experience who are comfortable with a tall, heavy single-cylinder big-bore trail bike.
PurposeBuilt as a big-bore adventure-touring trail bike for long-distance dual-sport riding rather than outright speed or sport handling.
Rider FitIts tall seat height, 222kg weight, and 21-inch front wheel demand decent rider strength and inseam length, especially off-road or at low speeds.
CharacterA torquey, air-cooled thumper with rugged, go-anywhere character and a relaxed, unhurried demeanor on the road.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking sharp cornering precision, high top speed, or a light, flickable machine for city commuting.
