How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily as a premium naked hooligan bike for aggressive backroad carving and spirited street riding rather than any single-purpose commuting or touring role.
- Built for
- It has the personality of a sharp-clawed streetfighter, rewarding confident throttle inputs with a snarling triple-cylinder soundtrack and razor-edge cornering precision.
- Not ideal for
- It is not the right choice for new riders, pillion-focused journeys, long-distance touring comfort, or any kind of off-road use.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
