Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a machine best suited to riders who already have solid experience handling long, heavy, low-slung customs with extreme rake angles and minimal ground clearance. |
| Purpose | Built purely as a boulevard and show-stopping chopper, its purpose is styling and cruising presence rather than performance or versatility. |
| Rider Fit | The stretched 83-inch wheelbase, 40-degree rake, and 317.5 kg dry weight demand strong low-speed handling skills and upper body strength for slow maneuvering and parking. |
| Character | It rewards a laid-back, image-conscious rider who values a dramatic silhouette, deep torque, and a rumbling V-twin soundtrack over cornering agility. |
| Not Ideal For | This is not a bike for riders wanting nimble handling, off-road capability, or a machine that feels light and flickable in tight traffic or twisty roads. |
