Pros and cons
Advantages
Long suspension travel
The 272 mm front and 318 mm rear travel give the suspension room to absorb bumps and landings.
High ground clearance
With 345 mm beneath the bike, it has room to pass over ruts and other track obstacles.
Light dry weight
Its 87.5 kg dry weight makes it easier to maneuver when repositioning the bike off the track.
Things to consider
Tall seat
At 947 mm, the seat can make it harder for shorter riders to reach the ground securely.
Smaller fuel tank
The 7.7 L tank holds less fuel than the 9 L tank on the 2001 model, so fuel stops may come sooner.
Kick start only
Starting relies on the kick lever, with no electric-start option.
