Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with a heavy, torque-driven classic V-twin and its shaft-drive handling characteristics.
Purpose	Built as a fast, long-legged sport tourer for covering serious distance at speed on open roads rather than for stunts or commuting.
Rider Fit	Its 243kg mass and low, sporty bars demand a fit rider with decent upper body strength and confidence in low-speed maneuvering.
Character	An iconic, charismatic Italian V-twin with a mechanical, unmistakable engine feel and shaft-drive shaft-shunt personality that rewards smooth riding.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for beginners, off-road use, or anyone wanting a light, nimble bike for tight city streets.
