How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for aggressive backroad blasts, trackday fun, and showing off Italian styling, rather than utilitarian commuting or distance touring.
- Built for
- Fiery, high-strung, and intensely engaging, with a screaming inline-triple and razor-sharp chassis that demands respect and rewards precision.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for new riders, those wanting plush all-day comfort, or anyone planning serious two-up touring or off-road use.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
