| Purpose | Built as an exotic showcase of extreme lightweight construction and design art, it doubles as a ferociously capable cornering and acceleration tool. |
| Rider Fit | The low, aggressive stance and minimal bodywork demand a fit rider comfortable with a committed, sport-oriented riding position. |
| Character | It rewards a rider who values engineering purity, rarity, and visceral power-to-weight thrills over practicality or creature comforts. |
| Not Ideal For | This is not a machine for new riders, daily commuters, passengers, or anyone seeking touring comfort or storage capacity. |
