Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to experienced riders who appreciate classic Italian shaft-drive V-twins and their unique handling quirks. |
| Purpose | Built for relaxed long-distance touring rather than outright speed or sporty cornering. |
| Rider Fit | A substantial, heavy machine that demands confident low-speed handling and some physical effort at a standstill. |
| Character | Charismatic and mechanical in feel, with a torquey air-cooled V2 and shaft drive that reward smooth, deliberate riding. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp agility, off-road capability, or modern performance. |
