How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It is designed primarily for light urban commuting and short trips rather than any sporty or long-distance use, despite the Sport category label.
- Built for
- It offers modest, unhurried performance with easygoing, forgiving manners typical of an entry-level single-cylinder machine.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for riders wanting highway touring capability, a passenger-friendly setup, or any kind of spirited or off-road riding.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
