How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a full-dress touring machine designed to eat highway miles in comfort rather than chase apex speeds or lap times.
- Built for
- A smooth, shaft-driven in-line four with plush suspension and a relaxed riding position that rewards patience over aggression.
- Not ideal for
- Not for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable city commuter.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
