Best for
Built primarily for spirited road riding and cornering thrills, blending Ducati superbike-derived performance with a more upright naked-bike stance.
Built for
It has the raw, characterful pull of a desmodromic V-twin combined with sharp, lightweight handling that feels eager and engaging rather than relaxed.
Not ideal for
It is not a good fit for new riders seeking a mellow first bike, nor for anyone wanting a plush, wind-protected long-distance tourer.

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