How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for competitive enduro riding and technical off-road trails rather than street use or long-distance touring.
- Built for
- A punchy, torquey four-stroke single with fuel injection and premium adjustable suspension gives it a responsive, precise, race-ready feel.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a machine suited to sustained highway touring.
