Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with some off-road or dirt-bike experience, as this is a light, torque-light two-stroke that rewards active riding rather than passive cruising.
PurposeBuilt purely for enduro and trail riding, not for road speed or highway distance work.
Rider FitIts very low 107kg weight makes it easy to muscle around, pick up, and flick over rough terrain, favoring smaller and lighter riders.
CharacterA nimble, no-frills two-stroke trail machine with a playful, buzzy engine character typical of 1980s enduro bikes.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting sustained highway speeds, passenger comfort, or long-distance touring capability.
