How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a big-bore desert-sled style adventure tourer, designed to combine long-distance range with genuine off-road capability rather than outright speed.
- Built for
- A rugged, torquey single-cylinder machine with a raw, mechanical character typical of early-90s big-bore adventure bikes.
- Not ideal for
- Not the right choice for riders wanting high-speed highway cruising or sharp sport-bike handling on tarmac.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
