Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to riders with at least some experience on mid-to-large displacement bikes who want a torquey V-twin without a full sportbike's edge. |
| Purpose | Designed for covering long distances comfortably while still offering the engaging feel of a Ducati desmodromic twin through corners. |
| Rider Fit | The moderate seat height and upright-leaning sport touring ergonomics suit riders of average to taller stature comfortably over long stints. |
| Character | A refined, torque-rich V-twin gran turismo character that rewards smooth inputs and confident cornering rather than outright aggression. |
| Not Ideal For | Not the right choice for riders seeking off-road capability or razor-sharp track-focused performance. |
