English term or phrase: with its finger on the pulse

Bent aggressively forwards with broad shoulders and an athletic demeanour – agile, manoeuvrable, sporty, technically always with its finger on the pulse and always clearly identifiable as a real MOTO XXX.

Notem que, apesar das características de uma pessoa, o trecho refere-se a uma moto. Essa expressão "with its finger on the pulse" certamente tem algum sentido figurativo aqui, que eu desconheço.

Agradeço pela ajuda.
