Rider Profile
| Best For | This is a big, heavy custom cruiser best suited to riders who already have experience handling long, low, weighty motorcycles at low speeds. |
| Purpose | Built as a bespoke American-style V-twin cruiser for laid-back boulevard cruising and show-worthy styling rather than outright performance. |
| Rider Fit | The stretched frame, low 533mm seat height, and 45-degree steep rake give a relaxed, feet-forward riding position, though the substantial dry weight of over 285kg demands confident low-speed balance and upper body strength when maneuvering at a standstill |
| Character | A rumbling, big-inch 45-degree V-twin with carburetted throttle response delivers a torque-rich, unhurried character that rewards smooth, deliberate riding over aggressive cornering. |
| Not Ideal For | Not a fit for riders seeking sharp handling, high-speed touring comfort, or any kind of off-road capability. |
