Best for
Built as a sport-touring adventure machine, it's designed for covering long distances comfortably with occasional light gravel or unpaved detours.
Built for
The 90-degree-style V-twin (0-degree crank configuration) delivers smooth, torquey power delivery with a relaxed, unhurried personality rather than outright thrills.
Not ideal for
This is not the right bike for riders chasing top-speed thrills or serious off-road technical trails, as its touring focus trades outright performance for comfort and range.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
