How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily as a sharp-edged street weapon for twisty roads and trackday-style cornering fun rather than commuting or distance travel.
- Built for
- A raw, hooligan-spirited naked bike that thrives on rider input, offering razor-sharp steering, strong midrange punch, and track-capable brakes and suspension.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right choice for beginners, riders seeking plush long-distance comfort, or anyone wanting a passenger-friendly or off-road-capable machine.
