Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to newer or younger riders cutting their teeth on a lightweight two-stroke sportbike, though its peaky power delivery rewards a bit of prior experience. |
| Purpose | Built for sharp, playful sport riding on twisty roads rather than outright speed or distance covering. |
| Rider Fit | Its tiny 132kg dry weight and low seat height make it extremely easy to manage for smaller or lighter riders. |
| Character | A revvy, high-strung two-stroke that demands to be kept on the boil and rewards an aggressive, engaged riding style. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a good match for taller riders, highway commuters, or anyone wanting a relaxed, comfortable long-distance machine. |
