For shorter riders this soft suspension makes it difficult to dismount no matter which method you employ. The Rally Raid rear suspension upgrade helped somewhat but I also had to fit the shorter side stand to go with that upgrade.
I have this bike. It’s fantastic for riding dirt roads and around the campsites. Not so good on the highway…short trips of maybe 10 miles but anything longer than that simply get a more powerful bike. I know Itchyboots covers a lot of tarmac on hers, but it’s pure torture with it screaming at 7000RPM. A great, lightweight multi purpose bike, but for any guy that’s larger than the average female…get a bigger bike to cover big road miles.

Nice review.
Check out Itchy Boots on RUclips- she is riding her 300 from South America to Alaska
is it a motocross ??
No. Dualsport.
Bye bye my Royal Enfield Meteor hello this bike !!!!
They got the suspension right?? LOL This review is pure fluff. It's more important to be able to critique the bike, not just heap praise.
Yeah I got my Rally suspension right in the bin, first throw.
"accessible"
who's gonna tell USA people we have 1500 dollar bicycles on south america and india?
