How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It's built as a stylish, torque-heavy retro roadster for spirited street riding and boulevard presence rather than outright sport performance or long-distance touring.
- Built for
- It has a classic, muscular UJM personality with strong midrange torque, a raw air-cooled exhaust note, and premium Öhlins-equipped custom styling from Yamaha's Yard Built program.
- Not ideal for
- It's not the right choice for new riders, offroad enthusiasts, or anyone wanting a lightweight commuter or a plush two-up touring machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
