Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for absolute beginners and learners; the power-restricted 10hp output and light weight make it forgiving and easy to manage.
PurposeA small-capacity commuter cruiser built for low-stress city errands, short hops and learning the ropes rather than covering big distances.
Rider FitLow, relaxed custom-style seating with modest 138kg weight and easy reach; comfortable at town speeds but cramped and buzzy when pushed.
CharacterA humble, unintimidating little twin — gentle, economical and dependable, with charm over performance. Restricted output keeps it very tame.
Not Ideal ForNot for experienced riders wanting speed, highway touring, two-up loaded trips, spirited cornering, or any off-road use.
