Why this bike

Easier than a Harley, built for gravel

Light and easy to handle

196 kg (432 lb) ready to ride, roughly half a big touring Harley. The 825 mm (32.5 in) seat is adjustable, and one lower seat is available on request. Easy at walking pace, in a parking lot or in the Needles Highway hairpins.

Made for dirt roads

200 mm of travel up front, 210 mm at the rear and 230 mm of ground clearance: the Black Hills forest roads, Sage Creek Rim Road in the Badlands and the Galena detour are all fair game. We share the GPX tracks.

Enough for a long day

40 hp and a 6-speed box with slip-and-assist clutch, happy at highway speed on I-90 to Sturgis. The 17-liter tank gives about 400 miles: the classic Black Hills loop on a single fill.
