Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a very heavy, large-dimension machine at low speeds and in parking maneuvers. |
| Purpose | Built for effortless long-distance touring with a passenger and luggage, prioritizing comfort and smooth power delivery over sportiness. |
| Rider Fit | Its substantial 421 kg weight and low seat height make it manageable once rolling, but riders need decent strength and confidence to handle it at a standstill or in tight spaces. |
| Character | A refined, armchair-like grand tourer with a smooth flat-six engine, shaft drive, and premium features like cruise control and electric reverse for effortless highway cruising. |
| Not Ideal For | Not for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable bike for tight canyon roads or any off-road use. |
