How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a stylish urban cafe racer, it's meant for spirited short rides, weekend blasts, and posing appeal rather than outright performance or distance touring.
- Built for
- It has a raw, characterful personality typical of a big single-cylinder engine, delivering torquey, thumping acceleration with a light, flickable chassis.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right bike for riders seeking high-speed touring comfort, passenger-friendly practicality, or any serious off-road capability.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
