How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a street-legal weapon for aggressive backroad carving and occasional track days rather than utilitarian commuting.
- Built for
- Raw, mechanical, and visceral, it channels superbike-derived Testastretta performance through a stripped-down naked format with premium Ohlins suspension and Brembo-class brakes.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for new riders, long-distance tourers, or anyone seeking a plush, relaxed, or low-maintenance riding experience.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
