Why It Stands Out

The 2025 Speed Twin 1200 Base hits the sweet spot between retro allure and modern function. It retains the soul and character that made the Speed Twin a market favorite—while adding extra horsepower, refined ergonomics, smarter electronics, and subtle styling upgrades. The result is a neo-classic that’s more engaging and enjoyable than ever.
