Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a classic sportbike best suited to experienced riders comfortable with a raw, mechanical, race-bred machine and its quirky desmodromic V-twin character. |
| Purpose | Built primarily for spirited backroad and track riding rather than commuting or long-distance touring. |
| Rider Fit | Its low clip-ons, rearset pegs, and light dry weight demand an aggressive, forward-leaning riding position that can tire out taller or less flexible riders on longer rides. |
| Character | It has the soul of a genuine 1980s Ducati race replica: light, precise, torquey at the bottom, and thrilling when pushed hard through corners. |
| Not Ideal For | This is not the right bike for new riders, city commuters wanting comfort, or anyone seeking a smooth two-up touring machine. |
