Rider Profile

Best ForBest for experienced riders comfortable managing a heavy 780+ lb full-dresser at low speeds; not a beginner machine.
PurposeBuilt for long-haul highway touring in classic American style, hauling two-up with luggage across big distances in relaxed comfort.
Rider FitLarge, heavy frame-mounted fairing tourer with plush seat, floorboards and upright ergonomics; demands strength at parking speeds.
CharacterLaid-back, torquey air-cooled V-twin that lopes along the interstate; more about relaxed cruising and presence than outright pace.
Not Ideal ForNot for sport riders, city commuters wanting nimble handling, off-road use, or anyone intimidated by a very heavy low-speed machine.
