How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built primarily as an approachable, fuel-efficient commuter and city runabout rather than a performance or long-distance machine.
- Built for
- The four-cylinder 250cc engine gives a smooth, rev-happy character with a sportier soundtrack than typical single-cylinder rivals, though outright power is modest.
- Not ideal for
- It's not a good fit for riders wanting serious highway touring capability, two-up comfort over distance, or genuine off-road use.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
