- Built for
- It's a sharp, lightweight, high-revving two-stroke that rewards aggressive riding with explosive acceleration and razor-sharp handling in the dirt.
- Not ideal for
- This bike is not suited to riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a highway tourer, or a low-maintenance easy-to-ride first bike.
