How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a sport tourer, it's designed for covering long distances quickly and comfortably rather than for tight track work or trail riding.
- Built for
- It has a big, torquey in-line four character that delivers strong, linear power with a reassuring, substantial road presence rather than razor-sharp agility.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right choice for anyone seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for tight canyon carving or for off-road adventures.
