How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It exists purely to conquer technical, obstacle-laden terrain at walking pace through precision throttle and body control rather than outright speed.
- Built for
- It rewards a patient, highly technical rider who enjoys finesse, hopping over rocks and logs more than a straight-line speed junkie.
- Not ideal for
- It is not suitable for anyone wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-carrying tourer, or a highway-capable motorcycle.
