Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least a couple of years of experience who are comfortable managing a big, heavy, powerful in-line four.
PurposeBuilt as a fast, comfortable sport tourer for covering long distances quickly rather than for tight track work or trail riding.
Rider FitAt around 248 kg dry with a moderate 790 mm seat height, it rewards riders of average-to-tall stature with reasonable upper body strength for low-speed maneuvering.
CharacterA muscular, torque-rich in-line four with a relaxed sport-touring temperament, favoring confident highway cruising over sharp, flickable handling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good match for new riders, shorter riders wanting a light bike, or anyone seeking an off-road or nimble city commuter.
