How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for laid-back boulevard cruising and short-to-medium range rides rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
- Built for
- A classic-styled, shaft-driven V-twin cruiser that delivers smooth, torque-rich low-RPM power with a relaxed exhaust note and traditional custom aesthetics.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders seeking sport-bike agility, high top speed, aggressive cornering capability, or any off-road use.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
