Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least a couple of years of experience who are comfortable managing a tall, heavy, shaft-driven sport-tourer at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt for covering long distances in comfort with a pillion and luggage rather than for outright speed or track antics.
Rider FitA tall seat height and substantial dry weight mean shorter or less physically confident riders may find it a handful at a standstill or in tight maneuvers.
CharacterA dependable, understated shaft-driven mile-eater that rewards smooth, steady riding over aggressive throttle inputs.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable machine.
