How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- A friendly dual-sport for trail exploring, light off-road fun and easy street commuting on mixed surfaces.
- Built for
- Mild, unintimidating and playful. A soft air-cooled thumper that rewards relaxed riding rather than speed, happiest on trails and around town.
- Not ideal for
- Not for highway touring, two-up trips, aggressive off-road racing or riders craving power; the small tank and modest engine limit range and pace.
