How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for bold, low-slung boulevard cruising and making a visual statement rather than covering ground quickly or attacking corners.
- Built for
- A muscular, chest-thumping factory custom that pairs a torquey big V-twin with fat tires and blacked-out styling for maximum street presence.
- Not ideal for
- Not the right choice for riders wanting agile cornering, off-road capability, or a light and nimble daily commuter.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
