How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for long, laid-back highway cruising and boulevard presence rather than outright speed or sport handling.
- Built for
- A classic American-style V-twin cruiser with deep torque, a low rumbling air-cooled engine feel, and a relaxed, feet-forward riding stance.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or high-speed sport performance.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
