Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to new and beginner-to-intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, modest power, and forgiving low-speed manners.
PurposeDesigned primarily as a sporty commuter for city streets and short spirited rides rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light overall weight make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to handle and manage at a stop.
CharacterOffers a nimble, flickable feel with sharp styling that gives an aggressive naked-bike attitude despite its small-displacement single-cylinder heart.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking high-speed highway touring, off-road capability, or two-up long-distance comfort.
