Pros	Looks stunning with a retro-neo design theme Powerful engine with linear delivery Quite nimble on city streets and feels at home even on the highways	Powerful 1252cc Revolution Max engine (120 hp, 125 Nm) Surprisingly agile and fun handling for a cruiser Advanced electronics including ride modes, traction control, and TFT display Modern design with strong road presence Lightweight feel compared to traditional Harleys
Cons	Doesn't have too many hi-tech features Slightly expensive to buy and run	Small 11.8-litre fuel tank limits range Firm suspension reduces comfort on bad roads Ground clearance is low (~90 mm), can scrape Expensive for the segment Not a traditional Harley feel (may not suit purists)
