Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to an experienced rider who appreciates a characterful, torquey V-twin with idiosyncratic handling traits from its shaft drive and transverse engine layout. |
| Purpose | A retro-styled café racer built for spirited backroad riding and boulevard presence rather than outright track performance or long-distance touring. |
| Rider Fit | The 800mm seat height and moderately aggressive, forward-leaning riding position favor taller riders with reasonable wrist and back stamina over long stints. |
| Character | Delivers a raw, mechanical, old-school Italian riding experience with strong low-to-mid range torque, distinctive shaft-drive shaft-jack feel, and premium Ohlins suspension for sharp, adjustable handling. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a good fit for off-road use, novice riders wanting neutral manners, or anyone seeking a plush, wind-protected, passenger-friendly tourer. |
