Best for
Purpose-built for extreme technical terrain like rocks, logs, hillclimbs, and tight woods sections rather than any form of road use.
Built for
A raw, high-strung 2-stroke enduro weapon that rewards aggressive, active riding with explosive low-end torque and razor-sharp agility.
Not ideal for
This is not suitable for commuting, highway travel, passengers, or riders seeking comfort and stability over pure off-road capability.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
