On the trail, the supposedly small enduro stands its ground everywhere. It shines downhill with its low weight, in the lively passages it impresses with its excellent handling and on the connecting stages it glides through the terrain in a particularly energy-saving way.

High-quality equipment

improved details.

Correct gait needed for deep soils or steep slopes.

The 350 is simply the new golden mean. In tough terrain on uphill sections, it is strong enough to compensate for a lack of riding skills with the throttle grip. But not too strong that it throws you off like a rodeo ox if you use it too hard. Downhill, it's light enough that you won't leave skid marks in your enduro underwear, even on rocky passages.

More refined look

thinner walls

new, practical fuel filter

Slightly increased weight.
