Rider Profile
| Best For | A great fit for newer riders progressing beyond a beginner bike as well as experienced riders who want an easy, confidence-inspiring middleweight. |
| Purpose | Built as a versatile naked all-rounder, equally happy commuting, weekend twisty-road riding, or light sport use. |
| Rider Fit | The 800mm seat height and 200kg wet weight make it manageable for most body sizes, including shorter riders. |
| Character | The 90-degree V-twin delivers a torquey, characterful power delivery with linear, approachable throttle response rather than outright top-end speed. |
| Not Ideal For | Not the right choice for riders seeking serious off-road capability, long-distance touring comfort, or class-leading outright performance. |
