How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a sport-touring all-rounder, equally happy eating up motorway miles as handling weekend backroad rides.
- Built for
- A classic UJM-style in-line four with a broad torque spread, delivering smooth, predictable power and a relaxed, unintimidating character.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for off-road adventures or for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for tight city commuting.
