Best for: Built for sharp, playful cornering on twisty backroads and supermoto-style thrashing rather than outright top speed or long-distance cruising.
Built for: A raw, single-cylinder supermoto with premium suspension and Brembo brakes that rewards an aggressive, engaged riding style over relaxed cruising.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for new riders seeking a forgiving first bike or for anyone wanting a comfortable, wind-protected machine for extended highway touring.

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