How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily as a big-bore enduro weapon for serious off-road riding, trail exploration, and technical terrain, with light road use as a secondary role.
- Built for
- A raw, torquey big single with a lightweight chassis rewards decisive, engaged riding and punishes hesitation, giving it a focused, no-nonsense personality.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders wanting plush comfort, pillion-friendly touring, or a low-effort commuter experience.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
