Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with some experience who enjoy a high-revving V4 that rewards confident throttle and gear use.
Purpose	A 1980s sport-touring middleweight built for spirited cornering and fast road riding with occasional longer trips.
Rider Fit	Its light weight and narrow chassis make it manageable for most rider sizes, though the sporty riding position favors a fit and flexible rider.
Character	Eager, revvy, and agile, with the distinctive exhaust note and mid-range punch typical of Honda's V4 engines.
Not Ideal For	Not a good match for riders wanting relaxed upright comfort, off-road capability, or serious two-up long-distance touring.
