Best for
Designed as a versatile all-round naked-turned-faired commuter and light tourer rather than a track or performance weapon.

A smooth-revving inline-four with a peaky top-end feel, wrapped in practical, easygoing all-rounder styling with a small protective fairing.
Not ideal for
Not the right choice for riders seeking serious off-road capability, aggressive sportbike performance, or long-distance touring comfort with a passenger and luggage.
