How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily for off-road and light dual-sport riding, with enough manners to serve as a simple commuter or backroads scratcher.
- Built for
- A no-frills, torquey thumper that rewards a relaxed, back-to-basics riding style over outright speed or refinement.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders wanting sustained highway comfort, passenger-friendly touring, or strong outright acceleration.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
