Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider who is comfortable with a heavy, powerful machine at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeBuilt as a sport tourer, it's designed for covering long distances quickly and comfortably rather than for tight track work or trail riding.
Rider FitAt 244 kg dry with a fairly tall seat height, taller and stronger riders will manage the bike's mass more confidently, especially at low speed maneuvers.
CharacterIt has a big, torquey in-line four character that delivers strong, linear power with a reassuring, substantial road presence rather than razor-sharp agility.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for anyone seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for tight canyon carving or for off-road adventures.
