Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a machine for experienced riders who understand big-inch V-twin power delivery and can manage a light, aggressive chassis with serious brakes and premium suspension. |
| Purpose | Built as a boutique, limited-edition performance naked, it exists to blend American V-twin character with race-bred handling for spirited road and canyon riding. |
| Rider Fit | A relatively low seat height paired with a compact, sporty riding position suits confident riders comfortable with a firm, hands-forward stance rather than an upright cruiser posture. |
| Character | The Heretic is a bold, individualistic statement bike for someone who wants exclusivity, craftsmanship, and thunderous torque wrapped in a track-capable chassis. |
| Not Ideal For | It's not a good fit for new riders, commuters wanting practicality, or anyone seeking a comfortable long-distance touring companion. |
