How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for serious mixed-terrain adventure and hard enduro riding, with enough V-twin torque to also cover fast open-road transit between trails.
- Built for
- It has the rangy, torquey, slightly wild personality of a rally-bred big-bore twin that feels most alive standing on the pegs on rough ground.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right bike for shorter riders, pure commuters, or anyone wanting plush two-up touring comfort.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
