How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a sport-touring machine that blends confident long-distance comfort with genuinely engaging handling for a shaft-driven boxer twin.
- Built for
- The boxer engine layout and ShiftCam variable valve tech give it a distinctive low-end pull and smooth, torquey character that rewards relaxed, confident riding over frantic revving.
- Not ideal for
- Not the right choice for riders seeking a dedicated off-road or dirt-capable machine, as its road-focused chassis and cardan shaft drive are not designed for rough terrain.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
