How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built for spirited backroad riding and city commuting where quick direction changes and strong midrange punch matter more than outright top speed.
- Built for
- The V-twin engine gives it a gruff, torquey personality with immediate throttle response, favoring feel and feedback over sheer refinement.
- Not ideal for
- It's not the right choice for someone wanting a plush, wind-protected long-distance tourer or a machine for off-road exploration.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
