How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built purely for motocross track riding and racing, not for commuting, road use, or general recreational riding.
- Built for
- A lightweight, single-cylinder four-stroke racer with a peaky powerband and razor-sharp handling designed for jumps, berms, and hard acceleration out of corners.
- Not ideal for
- Not suitable for riders wanting a comfortable daily commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a long-distance touring machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
