Best for
Built for supermoto-style thrills: fast flick-flick cornering on tight tarmac roads and track days, with occasional light off-road capability.
Built for
A raw, high-strung big-bore single that feels eager, direct, and thrilling in short, sharp bursts rather than relaxed cruising.
Not ideal for
Not a good fit for riders wanting long-distance comfort, passenger-friendly touring, or a low-maintenance, vibration-free daily commuter.

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

At 920mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will not reach the ground comfortably on the 2010 Husqvarna SM510R, with a stretched knee angle of around 155 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
