How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a fast, muscular sport-touring superbike, it excels at high-speed highway runs and spirited backroad and track riding rather than commuting.
- Built for
- It has the raw, torquey, big-bore in-line four character typical of 90s open-class sportbikes, favoring strong straight-line thrust over ultra-sharp agility.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for new riders, short commutes, low-speed maneuvering, or anyone seeking a plush, upright touring experience.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
