With a fuel capacity of 8.5 liters, riders can adventure further without frequent stops. The 260 mm front and 220 mm rear disc brakes offer solid stopping power, ensuring safety on various terrains. Additionally, the ergonomic 870 mm seat height makes it accessible for a wide range of riders, further enhancing its appeal as a versatile scrambler. **
