Rider Profile

Best ForThis homologation-special sportbike rewards experienced riders who understand aggressive geometry and a race-bred five-valve engine.
PurposeBuilt primarily for spirited canyon carving and track-day performance rather than relaxed cruising.
Rider FitExpect a committed forward-leaning riding position that places significant weight on the wrists and demands decent core strength on longer rides.
CharacterA raw, high-revving early-90s superbike with sharp handling, strong midrange power, and an uncompromising sporty demeanor.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, tall touring distances, or anyone wanting upright comfort and passenger-friendly ergonomics.
