Best for: It's built for muscular straight-line thrills and boulevard presence rather than corner-carving or long-distance touring.
Built for: It has a raw, drag-bike-inspired attitude with strong low-end torque, a low-slung stance, and aggressive styling that rewards throttle confidence.
Not ideal for: It's not a good fit for riders seeking off-road capability, upright touring comfort, or nimble flickable handling in tight corners.
