Rider Profile

Best ForGreat for beginners and returning riders; the low-power, lightweight package is forgiving and easy to learn on both on and off pavement.
PurposeA dual-sport trail/enduro machine built for exploring dirt roads, light off-road trails and cheap commuting, not highway mile-crunching.
Rider FitTall 880mm seat and 245mm ground clearance suit taller or confident riders; very light at 134kg, slim and upright with long-travel suspension.
CharacterPlayful, frugal and adventurous little thumper. Rev-happy 155cc single that thrives on trails, dirt tracks and darting through traffic.
Not Ideal ForNot for highway touring, two-up trips or speed seekers; the modest power, small tank and firm seat make long fast rides tiresome.
