Best for: It's built as a boutique, exclusive-feeling sport machine for spirited backroad and canyon riding rather than commuting or touring.
Built for: Its Moto Guzzi-derived V-twin, premium Ohlins and Paioli suspension, and hand-built exclusivity give it a raw, artisanal, connoisseur's sportbike character.
Not ideal for: This is not the right bike for a new rider, a daily commuter seeking comfort, or anyone wanting to go off-road or carry a passenger long distances.
