Who should ride it
This bike is for riders whose priority is recreational trail riding on an off-road motorcycle with a four-stroke engine, electric start and a five-speed gearbox. Its 34.8-inch seat height and 265-pound curb weight are useful fit and handling figures to consider when choosing a bike. It is not a choice for public-road commuting or night rides: it is not street legal in the United States and is not equipped with lights. The motorcycle is designed for an operator only, with no passenger capacity.
