Best for: Built as a fun, open-air three-wheeled roadster for spirited street riding and short-to-medium jaunts rather than serious long-distance touring or off-road use.
Built for: A playful, torquey, car-like riding experience with sporty low-end acceleration from the 900 ACE triple, traction control, and selectable riding modes for tailoring throttle response.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for riders wanting to carry a passenger, tackle unpaved trails, or do serious highway touring with luggage and weather protection.
