Best for: Built for effortless long-distance touring, with a smooth flat-six engine, shaft drive, and full weather protection prioritized over outright performance or sportiness.
Built for: A refined, armchair-like grand tourer that rewards a relaxed, unhurried riding style and values comfort, stability, and effortless mile-munching over aggressive cornering.
Not ideal for: Not the right choice for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable bike for tight city streets, off-road trails, or track-day cornering thrills.
