How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- This machine is built for relaxed cruising and stylish short-to-medium rides rather than long-distance touring or off-road adventuring.
- Built for
- It has a classic, torquey V-twin bobber character with laid-back power delivery and a shaft-drive smoothness that favors relaxed boulevard riding over aggressive performance.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right bike for riders seeking off-road capability, high-speed touring comfort, or sharp track-focused handling.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
