Best ForThis bike rewards confident, experienced riders who are comfortable with a tall, top-heavy, aggressive supermoto that demands active input.
PurposeBuilt for carving twisty tarmac and light gravel with wheelie-happy V-twin punch, sharp steering geometry, and premium Ohlins suspension for aggressive cornering thrills.
Rider FitThe tall 890mm seat height and firm, compact ergonomics favor taller, fit riders who can handle a bike that feels narrow but demands strong core engagement when pushing hard.
CharacterIt has a raw, energetic, and slightly unruly personality, blending torquey V-twin grunt with razor-sharp, flickable handling and premium track-focused componentry.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for new riders, tall-window comfort seekers, long-distance highway cruisers, or anyone wanting a plush two-up touring experience.
