Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to intermediate-to-experienced off-road riders comfortable with a tall, light, high-revving enduro machine.
Purpose	Built for competitive enduro and technical trail riding rather than commuting or highway travel.
Rider Fit	The tall 37.6 inch seat height and lightweight 249 lb chassis favor taller or more agile riders confident standing and maneuvering the bike over rough terrain.
Character	A sharp, responsive dirt-focused machine with a peaky high-strung engine character typical of a fuel-injected 250cc off-road four-stroke.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable street commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long-distance paved touring.
