Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to new and younger riders thanks to its light weight, low seat height, and manageable power delivery.
Purpose	Designed primarily as a nimble, stylish commuter and street bike for urban riding and light weekend fun.
Rider Fit	Very approachable for shorter or lighter riders, with a low 810mm seat and a featherweight 133kg chassis that's easy to handle at low speed.
Character	A sporty, aggressive-looking naked bike that rewards revving the small single-cylinder engine and flicking it through corners rather than chasing outright speed.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders wanting highway touring comfort, sustained high-speed cruising, or two-up long-distance travel.
