Best for
It's a retro-styled naked bike built primarily for spirited city riding and weekend backroad fun rather than outright speed or distance touring.
Built for
The high-revving in-line four with DOHC and carburettors gives it a classic, buzzy, eager character that rewards riding it at higher RPM rather than lugging along low down.
Not ideal for
It's not the right choice for riders wanting serious highway touring comfort, heavy passenger loads, or any off-road capability.
