How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built for spirited weekend rides and twisty backroads where classic styling and precise handling matter more than outright top-end speed.
- Built for
- It has the soul of a retro Italian sports bike: a torquey air-cooled desmodromic V-twin, trellis frame agility, and understated but purposeful styling.
- Not ideal for
- It's not the right choice for someone wanting plush long-distance touring comfort, pillion-friendly ergonomics, or any kind of off-road capability.
