⚡ QUICK TAKE
A powerful, planted naked bike that feels incredibly secure at speed — responsive, confidence-inspiring, and seriously fun once you adapt.
🤍 WHAT I LOVED
Feels glued to the road, especially through corners at higher speeds
Very stable and confidence-inspiring
Responsive and easy to control
Strong performance that makes riding exciting
⚠️ WHAT FELT CHALLENGING
Slightly higher centre of gravity compared to previous bike (MT-07)
Power felt intimidating at first
Short adjustment period to feel fully comfortable
PERSONAL NOTES
This bike really shines once you get moving.
Compared to a lighter bike like the MT-07, the higher centre of gravity is noticeable at first, and the power can feel like a big step up. But that adjustment happens quickly.
Once it clicks, the bike feels incredibly planted — especially when cornering at speed. It gives a strong sense of stability and control, which builds confidence the more you ride it.
It’s the kind of bike that rewards experience and delivers a really connected riding feel.
🧭 WHO THIS BIKE SUITS
Experienced riders wanting more power and performance
Riders who enjoy cornering and a planted feel
Those stepping up from mid-weight naked bikes
🚫 WHO IT MIGHT NOT SUIT
Beginners or riders not comfortable with strong power
Those wanting a lightweight or low-power bike
Riders unsure about managing a higher centre of gravity
⭐ FINAL VERDICT
Yes — once you adapt.
A powerful, confidence-inspiring naked bike that feels incredible at speed. A great step up for riders ready for more performance.
