Best for: Built purely as a boulevard and show-stopping chopper, its purpose is styling and cruising presence rather than performance or versatility.
Built for: It rewards a laid-back, image-conscious rider who values a dramatic silhouette, deep torque, and a rumbling V-twin soundtrack over cornering agility.
Not ideal for: This is not a bike for riders wanting nimble handling, off-road capability, or a machine that feels light and flickable in tight traffic or twisty roads.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
