Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to intermediate riders thanks to its modest power and forgiving, predictable manners.
PurposeIt's a versatile all-rounder built for commuting, learning, and light touring rather than outright performance.
Rider FitThe 780mm seat height and moderate 187kg dry weight make it manageable for riders of average or shorter stature.
CharacterIt has a mild-mannered, approachable personality with smooth in-line four power delivery rather than aggressive thrills.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for riders seeking track-level speed, hard cornering performance, or serious off-road capability.
