Rider Profile

Best For	Suits an intermediate to experienced rider comfortable with a heavy, torque-driven V-twin that rewards smooth inputs over aggressive throttle use.
Purpose	Built as a classic Italian sport-touring roadster, blending relaxed high-speed cruising with occasional spirited backroad riding.
Rider Fit	The tall seat height and 215kg dry weight demand a rider of reasonable height and strength for low-speed maneuvers and parking.
Character	Has a distinctive shaft-driven V-twin character with strong midrange torque, mechanical charm, and a solid, stable feel rather than razor-sharp agility.
Not Ideal For	Not ideal for novice riders seeking a light, nimble machine or for anyone wanting modern electronics, off-road capability, or blistering outright speed.
