Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an exotic, race-bred exclusive motard-styled machine that demands an experienced, skilled rider comfortable with razor-sharp handling and minimal rider aids.
PurposeBuilt as a lightweight, boutique Italian special for spirited backroad carving, trackday-style cornering thrills, and collector-grade ownership rather than daily transportation.
Rider FitThe extreme 157kg dry weight and aggressive supermoto ergonomics reward an active, fit rider who can move around the bike, though the upright bar position is more forgiving than a full sportbike.
CharacterA rare, hand-built titanium-framed jewel that blends Ducati V-twin desmodromic character with Ohlins and Brembo racing componentry for an intensely direct, visceral connection to the road.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking touring comfort, passenger-friendly ergonomics, offroad capability, or an affordable, low-maintenance everyday commuter.
