How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for tight, technical tarmac riding, trackday sessions, and supermoto-style hooliganism rather than any kind of long-distance or utility use.
- Built for
- A raw, single-cylinder supermoto with racing-derived suspension and premium components that feels alive, flickable, and eager to be thrown into corners at speed.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right choice for beginners, taller-distance tourers, passengers seeking comfort, or anyone wanting a soft, forgiving ride.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
