Best for
It's designed as a small-displacement commuter-style machine with light off-road pretensions rather than a genuine performance or adventure bike.
Built for
It has the character of a simple, honest, low-stress runabout that rewards relaxed, unhurried riding rather than aggressive throttle use.
Not ideal for
It is not suited to riders seeking high speed, long-distance touring comfort, or serious two-up passenger capability.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
