How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Best suited to mixed urban riding, twisty backroads, and light gravel or scrambler-style outings rather than long-distance touring or dedicated off-roading.
- Built for
- A stylish flat-track-inspired scrambler with a punchy single-cylinder engine, upside-down forks, and spoked wheels that blend retro looks with genuinely capable modern handling.
- Not ideal for
- Not the right choice for riders wanting high-speed motorway touring, heavy passenger and luggage carrying, or serious technical off-road adventure riding.
