Best for
Built for effortless long-distance touring with a passenger and luggage, prioritizing comfort and smooth power delivery over outright sportiness.
Built for
A smooth, torque-rich flat-six engine paired with shaft drive and plush suspension gives a serene, armchair-like cruising character rather than a sporty feel.
Not ideal for
Not the right choice for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for tight canyon roads, off-road trails, or aggressive sport riding.
