Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to intermediate to experienced riders who understand high-revving small-bore inline fours and want to work the gearbox to extract performance. |
| Purpose | A pure sport machine designed for spirited backroad riding and track days rather than practical transportation. |
| Rider Fit | Its light dry weight and compact dimensions make it easy to muscle around, though the low seat height and sporty ergonomics put more weight on the wrists during long stints. |
| Character | A revvy, high-strung 400cc four-cylinder that rewards riders who like to keep the engine spinning near its top end to unlock its performance. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a good fit for riders seeking long-distance comfort, passenger-friendly ergonomics, or low-speed practicality in daily commuting. |
