How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for technical off-road riding, enduro competition, and trail work rather than road use or covering long distances.
- Built for
- A purposeful, race-bred V-twin enduro with premium suspension and a light, tossable feel that rewards an aggressive, dirt-focused riding style.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a relaxed long-distance tourer.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
