Best for: Built for relaxed long-distance touring and highway cruising rather than sport riding or commuting agility.
Built for: A classic air-cooled V-twin with a torquey, unhurried character, transverse-mounted shaft-drive charm, and old-school Moto Guzzi soul over outright performance.
Not ideal for: Not the right bike for riders wanting sharp cornering agility, high-speed thrills, 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.
