How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for sharp, playful sport riding on twisty roads rather than outright speed or distance covering.
- Built for
- A revvy, high-strung two-stroke that demands to be kept on the boil and rewards an aggressive, engaged riding style.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good match for taller riders, highway commuters, or anyone wanting a relaxed, comfortable long-distance machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
