Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a machine for experienced riders who are comfortable managing very strong acceleration and a substantial amount of mass at speed. |
| Purpose | Built as a hyper sport-tourer, it excels at devouring long highway distances at high speed while still offering genuine sport performance when asked. |
| Rider Fit | At 257 kg dry with a long wheelbase, it rewards riders of above-average strength and confidence, especially in slow-speed maneuvers and parking. |
| Character | It has the personality of a effortless, brutally fast shaft-driven cruiser-missile, smoothing out big miles with turbine-like refinence and huge in-gear torque. |
| Not Ideal For | It is not the right choice for new riders, off-road use, tight urban commuting, or anyone wanting a light, flickable city bike. |
