How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built as a stylish, boutique cruiser-style naked bike for making a visual statement and enjoying relaxed, torque-rich rides rather than for outright performance.
- Built for
- It has a bold, artisanal, retro-futuristic character built around a massive air-cooled V2 engine and distinctive Italian design flair.
- Not ideal for
- It's not the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or affordable everyday practicality.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
