Best for: Built for relaxed, high-comfort long-distance touring with a passenger and luggage rather than sport riding or commuting.
Built for: A bold, custom-styled American cruiser-tourer with a torquey V-twin, distinctive Arlen Ness bodywork, and a laid-back, cross-country persona.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight, nimble city runabout.
