How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for relaxed boulevard cruising and stoplight-to-stoplight torque-driven acceleration rather than outright speed or cornering agility.
- Built for
- A big-twin power cruiser with strong low-end torque, a shaft drive for low maintenance, and classic chromed styling that favors presence and comfort over sharp handling.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders wanting a lightweight, flickable bike for tight canyon roads or any form of off-road use.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
