How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily as an affordable, lightweight sportbike focused on twisty roads and light track duty rather than outright top-speed performance.
- Built for
- A nimble, communicative parallel-twin sportbike with a rigid Deltabox frame that rewards precise, aggressive cornering input over brute horsepower.
- Not ideal for
- Not ideal for riders prioritizing long-distance comfort, passenger touring, or high-speed autobahn cruising given its firm suspension, small tank, and minimal wind protection.
