| Purpose | Built primarily as a hyper-sport speed machine for high-speed highway runs and top-end thrills rather than technical track carving. |
| Rider Fit | Riders need decent strength and stamina to manage its considerable weight at low speed and to hold on under its violent acceleration. |
| Character | A brutally fast, iconic long-distance sport bike that blends outright top-speed performance with surprising highway comfort. |
| Not Ideal For | This is not a good choice for beginners, short commutes in heavy traffic, or anyone wanting a light, playful, or off-road capable machine. |
