How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built primarily as a bold, muscular power-cruiser for style-driven boulevard riding and short blasts rather than outright speed or long-distance travel.
- Built for
- A big-torque V-twin with aggressive custom styling that rewards relaxed, throttle-driven riding over aggressive cornering or high-rev thrills.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp handling, off-road capability, or a comfortable long-haul touring platform.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
