Best for
It is built primarily for urban commuting and learning the ropes, not for high-speed or long-distance riding.
Built for
The single-cylinder, DOHC engine and quality Kayba suspension give it a lively, nimble feel for its class with surprisingly capable brakes and chassis for a small-displacement bike.
Not ideal for
This is not the bike for riders seeking highway overtaking power, extended motorway touring, or off-road adventuring.

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