How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Designed as an adventure-touring all-rounder that blends long-distance comfort with light off-road capability and everyday usability.
- Built for
- A torquey V-twin with relaxed low-end power delivery gives it a composed, confidence-building personality rather than an aggressive, high-revving feel.
- Not ideal for
- Not the right choice for riders seeking a lightweight dirt-focused enduro or a sharp, track-oriented sportbike.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
