Best for: Built as a road-going supermoto, this bike is happiest carving tight, twisty tarmac and darting through urban traffic rather than covering long highway distances or serious dirt trails.
Built for: It has a light, flickable, aggressive character with sharp street-focused handling, strong brakes, and a torquey V-twin feel more than outright top-end speed.
Not ideal for: It is not a good fit for riders wanting a relaxed two-up tourer, a genuine off-road machine, or a top-speed highway cruiser.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
