How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's designed for fun, nimble urban riding and playful backstreet antics rather than any serious speed or distance work.
- Built for
- It has the sporty, aggressive supermotard styling and stance of its bigger siblings but with a tiny two-stroke heart, making it feel eager and toy-like rather than genuinely fast.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the bike for highway commuting, long-distance touring, or carrying a passenger in real comfort.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
