How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- This is a late-90s middleweight sportbike built for spirited road riding and occasional track days rather than commuting or long-distance touring.
- Built for
- A revvy, high-strung inline-four paired with a light, agile chassis gives it a playful, eager personality that thrives when pushed hard through corners.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for riders seeking upright comfort, long-haul touring capability, passenger-friendly accommodations, or any off-road use.
