Rider Profile

Best ForThis lightweight two-stroke commuter suits beginners and casual riders comfortable with a small, high-revving engine and manual four-speed gearbox.
PurposeBuilt as an economical, nimble allround commuter for everyday city and short-distance riding rather than performance or long-haul touring.
Rider FitIts low dry weight of around 109 kg and compact dimensions make it easy to handle for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterIt has a spirited, buzzy two-stroke character that rewards revving the engine and threading through traffic rather than cruising at high speed.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suited for riders seeking high-speed touring, off-road capability, or carrying a passenger over long distances in comfort.
