Rider Profile
| Best For | Suitable for beginners thanks to its low seat and smooth power, but its 87hp V4 keeps intermediate and experienced riders entertained too. |
| Purpose | A power cruiser (the Magna) built for relaxed street riding, boulevard cruising and light touring, with surprising punch when you want it. |
| Rider Fit | Low 710mm seat and relaxed cruiser ergonomics make it easy to flat-foot, though the 229kg dry weight is noticeable at walking pace. |
| Character | Silky liquid-cooled V4 gives a distinctive, refined character rare among cruisers - smooth, torquey and eager to rev beyond typical cruiser norms. |
| Not Ideal For | Not for off-road use, track-day cornering enthusiasts, or riders wanting sportbike lean angles and lightweight flickability. |
