Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders comfortable with a tall, light, lively two-stroke that rewards active riding over outright confidence-inspiring stability.
PurposeBuilt as a road-legal enduro/motard-styled trail bike for playful off-road excursions and short, nimble urban hops rather than sustained speed or distance.
Rider FitThe tall 900mm seat height and light 116kg dry weight favor taller or more agile riders who can manage a lofty stance and shift body weight easily.
CharacterA buzzy, high-revving two-stroke single with a mischievous, flickable character that thrives on tight trails and back streets.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting sustained highway speed, plush comfort, or a machine capable of carrying a passenger any real distance.
