Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to intermediate and experienced riders who want a torquey V-twin with a playful, slightly aggressive character. |
| Purpose | A naked streetfighter built for spirited backroad carving and urban riding rather than long-distance touring or off-road use. |
| Rider Fit | A moderate 189 kg weight and 810 mm seat height make it manageable for average and taller riders, though shorter riders may need to adjust to the reach. |
| Character | Delivers a punchy, characterful V-twin exhaust note and torque-rich midrange that rewards throttle confidence over outright top-end speed. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a good fit for off-road adventures, pillion-heavy touring, or riders seeking plush long-haul comfort. |
