Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to intermediate or experienced riders who are comfortable managing strong midrange power and real heft in fast corners.
PurposeIt's a sport-tourer at heart, built for covering long fast distances with big-bike stability rather than pure track-day razor sharpness.
Rider FitThe combination of a long wheelbase and substantial weight means riders benefit from decent strength and height to muscle it through slow, tight maneuvers.
CharacterExpect a big, torquey in-line four with a broad spread of power, a planted high-speed feel, and a slightly more relaxed, sport-touring personality than a pure supersport.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for new riders, off-road use, or anyone wanting a light, flickable machine for tight urban commuting.
