Rider Profile

Best For	Suited to intermediate and experienced riders who appreciate a raw, mechanical twin; not ideal as a first bike due to its sporty focus.
Purpose	A classic air-cooled supersport built for spirited backroad blasts and canyon carving, rewarding smooth, committed riding over commuting.
Rider Fit	Clip-on bars and rear-set pegs give a forward-leaning stance; low 780mm seat and light 186kg dry weight make it manageable yet sporty.
Character	Torquey, characterful desmo L-twin with soulful air-cooled charm, a slim trellis-framed chassis and razor-sharp steering that begs to lean.
Not Ideal For	Not for tourers, two-up loaders, or riders wanting off-road ability or plush all-day comfort.
