Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced riders who understand how to manage massive torque and a very wide, heavy chassis at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt as a straight-line boulevard spectacle powered by a genuine automotive V8, prioritizing brutal acceleration and show presence over cornering ability.
Rider FitRiders need real physical strength and confidence to muscle the extreme width and weight around in parking lots, U-turns, and stop-and-go traffic.
CharacterA loud, unapologetic novelty cruiser that trades agility for outrageous torque, V8 soundtrack, and jaw-dropping straight-line performance.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for new riders, tight canyon carving, or anyone wanting a nimble, lightweight, or off-road capable motorcycle.
