As a naked motorcycle, it suits agile street and back-road riding more than long touring comfort.
Highway / longer rides
Wind protection on long highway days depends on screens and rider preference.

Seat height & rider fit
Seat height is about 790 mm (31.1 in) — mid-range, but personal fit still matters.
