How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a lightweight, race-derived V-twin two-stroke, it exists purely for fast, precise cornering and track-day thrills rather than practicality.
- Built for
- It has the temperamental, adrenaline-fueled personality of a classic 90s two-stroke racer replica, rewarding smooth throttle control with explosive mid-to-high rev excitement.
- Not ideal for
- It is not suited to new riders, commuters wanting comfort, or anyone seeking a relaxed, low-maintenance, or long-distance touring machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
