How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a muscular naked roadster, it excels at spirited street riding and boulevard presence rather than track lap times.
- Built for
- The shaft-driven, air/oil-cooled transverse V-twin gives it a raw, mechanical, old-school Italian personality full of torque and shaft-drive quirks like driveline lurch under throttle.
- Not ideal for
- It is not the right choice for riders wanting a lightweight, flickable machine or one that can handle any unpaved or off-road terrain.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
