How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a supermotard, it exists to carve tight tarmac corners and city streets with dirt-bike agility rather than to cover long distances or carry luggage.
- Built for
- Expect a raw, vibrant single-cylinder character with sharp throttle response, aggressive handling, and a stripped-down, hooligan-friendly feel.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right bike for riders wanting plush comfort, passenger-friendly ergonomics, or effortless long-distance touring capability.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
