How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It is built primarily for laid-back boulevard cruising and showing off custom styling rather than outright speed or cornering prowess.
- Built for
- It has the soul of an American-style custom cruiser: a thumping 1340cc V-twin, belt drive, and chrome-heavy attitude over raw performance.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the bike for riders wanting sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or serious high-speed touring performance.
