How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a bespoke American-style V-twin cruiser for laid-back boulevard cruising and show-worthy styling rather than outright performance.
- Built for
- A rumbling, big-inch 45-degree V-twin with carburetted throttle response delivers a torque-rich, unhurried character that rewards smooth, deliberate riding over aggressive cornering.
- Not ideal for
- Not a fit for riders seeking sharp handling, high-speed touring comfort, or any kind of off-road capability.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
