How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as an Italian supermoto-style street tracker, it's meant for spirited backroad carving and short, engaging rides rather than distance or utility.
- Built for
- It has the personality of a stripped-down Italian street tracker: eager, agile, mechanically simple, and full of character rather than outright speed.
- Not ideal for
- It's not a good match for riders wanting long-distance comfort, passenger touring, or modern electronic rider aids.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
