How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a boutique Italian sportbike, it exists primarily for aggressive cornering and track-focused riding rather than commuting or long-distance travel.
- Built for
- It has the character of a rare, hand-built exotic: light, razor-sharp, mechanically intricate, and rewarding to a rider who wants a raw connection to the machine rather than modern electronic aids.
- Not ideal for
- It is not for beginners, pillion-focused riders, or anyone wanting plush comfort, wind protection, or easy low-maintenance ownership.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
