Rider Profile

Best ForThis small-capacity V-twin sport bike suits newer riders or those wanting a light, unintimidating machine to build skills on.
PurposeIt is best suited to commuting and casual sporty riding rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitIts modest displacement and presumably light weight make it easy to handle for riders of smaller stature or less physical strength.
CharacterIt has a mild-mannered, approachable personality wrapped in sport-styled bodywork rather than the edge of a true supersport.
Not Ideal ForIt is not for riders seeking high-speed thrills, serious touring range, or any off-road capability.
