Best for: Built as a versatile, characterful all-rounder that blends retro styling with genuine light-to-moderate off-road capability.
Built for: A torquey, charismatic parallel-twin with classic scrambler looks, long-travel premium suspension, and enough electronics to feel modern without losing its analogue soul.
