Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least a couple of seasons of experience, since the substantial weight demands confident low-speed handling and slow-maneuver control.
PurposeBuilt for effortless long-distance cruising, eating up highway miles with a smooth in-line four engine and shaft drive reliability.
Rider FitRiders of average to above-average height and strength will manage it best, as the bike's bulk becomes noticeable when pushing it around or paddling at a stop.
CharacterA composed, unflappable grand tourer that rewards a relaxed riding style over aggressive throttle inputs.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, urban commuters seeking nimbleness, or anyone wanting to explore unpaved roads.
