Best for: Built for bold, stripped-down cruising and boulevard presence rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Built for: A brash, blacked-out street cruiser with torque-heavy V-twin character that rewards laid-back throttle rolls over aggressive cornering.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for riders wanting agile cornering, off-road capability, or a comfortable long-haul touring companion.

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