Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least a couple of seasons of experience who want a torquey V4 platform without full sportbike aggression.
PurposeDesigned as a sport-touring adventure crossover, blending upright ergonomics with a punchy VFR-derived V4 engine for mixed road use.
Rider FitAt over 240kg wet with an 816mm seat height, it demands a reasonably tall and physically confident rider, especially at low speed or when maneuvering.
CharacterA distinctive, slightly cult-status machine that rewards riders wanting V4 smoothness and midrange pull in a practical, weather-friendly adventure-styled body.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for shorter or lighter riders, off-road enthusiasts, or those seeking a lightweight, flickable commuter.
