Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to intermediate and experienced riders who can manage a torquey V2 with sporty handling and a tall-ish seat. |
| Purpose | A versatile all-rounder built for spirited road riding, mountain roads, and light adventure touring rather than serious off-road work. |
| Rider Fit | A 230 kg wet weight and 840-860 mm seat height mean shorter riders may need to be careful at stops, but the narrow waist and balanced ergonomics make it manageable once moving. |
| Character | Sporty, engaging, and premium-feeling, with strong midrange torque and confident, precise handling that rewards an active riding style. |
| Not Ideal For | Not ideal for true off-road adventuring or for riders wanting a low, easy-reach seat and minimal maintenance simplicity. |
