How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built as a lightweight, dual-purpose-flavored roadster for mixed on-road use and light trail-adjacent riding rather than serious touring or track work.
- Built for
- It has the charm of a small, torquey, old-school Italian V-twin with a raw, mechanical feel and a distinctly retro off-road-inspired look.
- Not ideal for
- It's not a good fit for riders wanting high top speed, long-distance highway comfort, or modern touring amenities.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
