Best for: Built for muscular, old-school street riding where brute low-end torque and a commanding presence matter more than outright agility.
Built for: A retro-styled power cruiser with a big air/oil-cooled four-cylinder engine, offering effortless midrange pull and a raw, mechanical character rather than razor-sharp sportbike responses.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for new riders, off-road use, or anyone wanting a light, flickable bike for tight technical corners.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
