How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It exists purely for competitive motocross and off-road training, offering a lightweight, high-revving 2-stroke package to teach race craft and bike control.
- Built for
- Sharp, flickable, and eager to rev, it rewards aggressive, active riding on rough motocross terrain rather than relaxed cruising.
- Not ideal for
- It is not suitable for road use, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or adult riders seeking comfort and stability.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
