How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- A do-it-all standard UJM for commuting, weekend rides and light touring - practical, dependable transport rather than a specialist tool.
- Built for
- A classic air-cooled inline-four naked with honest, unintimidating performance and old-school UJM charm; reliable and undemanding.
- Not ideal for
- Not for track-day chasers, aggressive canyon carvers, off-road use, or riders wanting cutting-edge power and sport-bike handling.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
