Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate and experienced riders comfortable with a tall, powerful, 17-inch-wheeled sport-touring machine rather than true off-road novices.
PurposeDesigned as a road-biased sport tourer with adventure styling, excelling at fast highway miles and twisty backroads rather than technical off-road terrain.
Rider FitThe 835mm seat height and 228kg wet weight demand reasonably confident leg reach and moderate strength when maneuvering at low speed or off pavement.
CharacterA punchy triple-cylinder engine delivers strong midrange torque and a sporty edge, wrapped in a versatile, upright riding position for long-distance comfort.
Not Ideal ForNot the ideal pick for riders seeking a genuine off-road-capable adventure bike or a lightweight, beginner-friendly first motorcycle.
