How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a small-displacement supermoto for tight, technical fun on pavement and light off-road tracks rather than for outright speed or distance.
- Built for
- A nimble, flickable little machine that rewards playful riding, tight cornering, and quick direction changes over raw power.
- Not ideal for
- It is not a good fit for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or riders seeking strong acceleration.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
