Best for: Built primarily as a stylish, muscular cruiser for spirited boulevard riding, weekend backroad carving, and short-to-medium getaways rather than serious long-haul touring or off-road use.
Built for: A torquey, characterful 60-degree V-twin cruiser with modern electronics like traction control, cruise control, and multiple ride modes wrapped in a classic bobber-inspired silhouette.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for riders seeking off-road capability, big-mile touring comfort with a passenger, or a lightweight, flickable machine for tight technical cornering.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
