Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a machine best suited to experienced riders who appreciate a characterful, low-volume Italian V-twin with unusual engineering like shaft drive and air cooling. |
| Purpose | Built as a boutique sport-touring twin, it favors flowing corner work and spirited road riding over outright track lap times or long-haul comfort. |
| Rider Fit | A moderate 220 kg weight and 790 mm seat height make it manageable for most riders, though the sporty ergonomics reward a fit, engaged riding style. |
| Character | The Supertwin blends torquey air-cooled V2 grunt with shaft-drive smoothness, giving it a distinctive, mechanical, old-school sporting personality rare in modern bikes. |
| Not Ideal For | It is not for riders seeking modern electronics, off-road capability, or a plush two-up touring experience. |
