Best for
It's built for relaxed, low-speed cruising around town and short scenic rides rather than outright performance.
Built for
It has a classic cruiser feel, with V-twin-style character and torque delivered low in the rev range rather than a rush of top-end power.
Not ideal for
It's not a good choice for highway-speed touring, aggressive cornering, or off-road use given its modest power and limited suspension travel.

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