How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Designed as a supermoto-style street fighter derived from enduro roots, excelling at flickable cornering and playful urban or backroad riding rather than long-distance cruising.
- Built for
- A raw, minimalist, and energetic machine that rewards aggressive throttle input and quick direction changes with an old-school single-cylinder thump.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders seeking plush comfort, high-speed stability, or a comfortable two-up touring platform.
