Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits experienced riders who are comfortable managing a heavy, high-torque V-twin with a fat rear tire and aggressive geometry.
PurposeIt's built as a premium power-cruiser that blends muscular straight-line performance with boutique, hand-built craftsmanship rather than outright track ability.
Rider FitThe low 800mm seat height aids reach to the ground, but the substantial 255kg dry weight demands confident low-speed handling and upper-body strength at a stop.
CharacterExpect a bold, exclusive machine with a thumping V-twin character, premium Ohlins suspension, and top-shelf componentry that rewards a relaxed but assertive riding style.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for new riders, off-road adventurers, or anyone seeking a lightweight, nimble commuter.
