How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built purely for technical trials riding, tackling obstacles, rocks, and tight balance-based maneuvers at very low speeds rather than for outright speed or distance.
- Built for
- A featherweight, highly responsive two-stroke trials iron that rewards precise clutch and throttle control with incredible agility in technical terrain.
- Not ideal for
- It is not suitable for riders wanting highway speed, long-distance comfort, passenger carrying, or a machine for everyday street commuting.
