Performance Profile & Rider Fit
Best For
Rider Profile
| Best For | Best suited to riders with at least a season or two of experience, given the torquey triple and substantial mass at low speed. |
| Purpose | Built for covering long distances briskly and comfortably rather than chasing lap times. |
| Rider Fit | A taller, sturdier rider will feel most at home managing its 215kg dry weight and 780mm seat height, especially at parking-lot speeds. |
| Character | The in-line triple gives a distinctive mid-range growl and pull, offering a character between smooth four-cylinder refinement and raw twin torque. |
| Not Ideal For | Not the right choice for riders wanting a lightweight commuter or anyone planning off-road excursions. |
