Rider Profile
| Best For | For experienced riders comfortable managing a heavy, powerful big-bore machine; not a beginner's bike. |
| Purpose | Fast-paced sport touring: covering long distances at speed with luggage and a passenger on paved roads. |
| Rider Fit | Large, heavy (256kg) full-size bike with a semi-sporty upright riding stance, roomy ergonomics and 20L tank for range. |
| Character | Muscular air-cooled inline-four sport tourer of the late '80s-smooth, torquey, stable at high speed but bulky and physical at low speeds. |
| Not Ideal For | Not for novices, city commuters wanting a nimble ride, or anyone seeking off-road or track-focused performance. |
